You’ve just begun to explore the many ways you can configure an Object View with its native widget framework. One widget in that framework, the Property Card, is a quick, common way to display single or aggregated properties pulled from the object in view or from object types reachable through ontology links. It provides a useful introduction to widget dynamics and configuration.

Remember that this native Object View widget framework is just one way to build your Object View (i.e., your object “hub”) and that you’ll have exposure to more sophisticated methods at a later point in this track.

What you built

  • Property card widgets displaying data from your flight alert object and the linked delay objects.

What you learned

  • An Object View is a flexible composition of widgets grouped into tabs.
  • The configuration you set for one object is automatically applied to all others of that type.
  • Widget vary in their ability to display information on the object in view, directly linked objects, and transitively lined objects.
  • The property card widget is a convenient way to surface properties and aggregations over linked objects.
