Description
Committing an update set that has changes to widgets on a dashboard causes the widgets not to be displayed after the commit.
Steps to Reproduce
-
Create a local update set and make it your current update set.
For more information, see the product documentation topic Create and select an update set as the current set.
-
Navigate to Performance Analytics > Dashboards.
-
Click the context menu icon and choose New Dashboard to create a dashboard.
-
Click "+" sign at the top right corner of the dashboard and add any widget to the dashboard.
-
Click Done.
-
Navigate to Homepage Admin > Pages.
-
Find the page record (sort by Updated).
-
Right-click the record and unload the page.
-
Navigate to System Update Sets > Update Sources > Local Update Sets.
-
Check the update set for which you captured the widget/dashboard creation and ensure that the changes made were captured.
-
Complete the update set and then choose Export to XML.
-
Commit the update set on another instance.
-
Navigate to Performance Analytics > Dashboards and select your dashboard.
Note that none of the widgets appear in the dashboard display.
Workaround
To display the dashboard:
-
Navigate to Homepage Admin > Pages on the target instance to find the homepage record.
-
Click View Homepage.
-
Navigate to Performance Analytics > Dashboards and view the dashboard.
The dashboard now displays the widgets.
Note: This workaround is effective only on a per session basis. If you do not have access to the homepages module, you will not be able to perform the workaround to view the page. |
