Overview

Object View is a central hub for all information and workflows related to a particular object. Object views include key information about an object, linked objects, related metrics, analyses, dashboards, and applications.

Object views can be created in various form factors and sizes giving builders the flexibility to customize the look and feel of their object views, and where they can be embedded and accessed within the platform.

For example, a full Airport object view (drawing on open-source data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics) might provide the following information:

• Airport name, city, and location
• Links to aircraft delay action workflows
• Timelines of arrival and departure flights

Previewing and accessing object view configuration

Object views in various form factors can be previewed and their configurations accessed within Ontology Manager by selecting an object type and navigating to the Object views tab.

Start by selecting an object of choice to preview object views configured for that object type. You may toggle between various object view form factors configured for the object type by selecting the form factor of choice above the object view preview.

Object view configuration can be accessed by selecting the Edit views option at the top right, which will open either the object view editor or the Workshop module backing the object view in a new tab depending on the form factor.
