Implant
At runtime, the Implant container is replaced by the specified Reference dashboard, and the specified Context Path is passed to a Custom Property of the reference dashboard, allowing a single dashboard to be used repeatedly to display information from different contexts. |  |
Consider visiting the tutorial Implanting Dashboards to learn about leveraging the Implant container when developing a Web UI. The Implant and Sub-Dashboard Comparison explains in more detail the differences between the Implant and Sub-Dashboard containers.

Common variables and variable groups: Name, Advanced Properties, Container Properties, Styles, Preloader, Events, Bindings.
Reference
Context path of a web dashboard to load and display inside the Implant component.
Variable Name: | reference |
Records: | 1 |
Record Format:
Field Name | Field Type | Notes |
reference | String | Reference |
Default Context
When the Implant container is loaded in a parent dashboard, the dashboard indicated by Reference is also loaded, with a Custom Property named dc added to its Root panel. The value of Default Context is passed to this custom property at runtime.
 | When used in a relative dashboard, the Implant component will replace references to the default context in binding expressions of the dashboard defined in Reference. Used in absolute dashboards, the Implant component does not replace any binding references in the dashboard defined in Reference. |
Variable Name: | dc |
Records: | 1 |
Record Format:
Field Name | Field Type | Notes |
dc | String | Default context |
Custom Properties
Once a value is set for the Reference property of the Implant container, any Custom Properties defined by the referenced dashboard are displayed under the Custom Properties group in the Implant container. At runtime, the referenced dashboard is loaded with the values for custom properties defined in the Implant container, rather than any default values defined in the referenced dashboard itself.
 | A parent dashboard can contain multiple Implant containers with an identical Reference property, but different values for the custom property or properties. In this way, a dashboard can be customized endless times without needing to edit it directly. |
Any (Property Description Defined in Referenced Dashboard)
All property names, descriptions, formats and configurations are available as defined in the Custom Properties of the dashboard referenced in the Reference property of the Implant container.
Variable Name: | Any |
Records: | 0…Unlimited |
Record Format:
The property format can have any number of fields, as defined by the Custom Properties of the referenced dashboard.
Field Name | Field Type | Notes |
Any | Any | Field name and type are defined by the Custom Properties of the referenced dashboard. |
