What goes on a board
Sixteen element types, one canvas
Every dashboard is assembled from the element palette. Twelve of those elements are charts, and the rest carry the numbers, rows and text around them.
Twelve chart types
Line, bar, horizontal bar, pie, doughnut, polar area, radar, scatter, bubble, area (ribbon), stepped line and stepped area. When a chart needs something the panel does not expose, the Advanced Chart Editor takes raw Chart.js configuration JSON with a live preview.
Metric cards
A single number formatted as a number, currency or percentage, with an optional prefix and suffix. Give it a comparison value and it renders a trend arrow against the previous period.
Tables, text and nested boards
Data tables with per-column formats — text, number, currency, date or status — plus sorting and pagination. Text blocks for labels, and Embed Dashboard to nest one board inside another.
Where the numbers come from
Four kinds of data source, mixable per element
A board does not have to draw everything from one place. Set the default source to Mixed and every element can point somewhere different.
- Script Engine — run a DataMagik script and map its output fields onto elements. Test the script from the designer before you bind anything.
- Webhook — any REST endpoint, GET or POST, with no auth, a bearer token, an API key or basic auth. Test it and preview the response before mapping.
- Static — hardcoded JSON, for laying a board out before the data exists.
- Mixed — per-element sources, so one board can span several APIs and scripts.
How it gets built
Drag onto a 12-column grid
Elements are dragged from the palette onto a responsive 12-column grid. Drag a corner to resize, drag the body to move, and click any element to open its properties panel for data binding, formatting and styling.
Each element carries its own background, text colour, border, shadow and padding, so a board can follow your own conventions rather than a fixed theme. The documented sizing guidance is 2–3 columns for metric cards, 4–6 for charts and tables, and 8–12 for anything full width.
Every publish is tracked as a dashboard version, so a layout change is recoverable rather than final.
Live, filtered and governed
What happens after you publish
Refresh on a real interval
Auto-refresh defaults to 300 seconds and will not go below 45 — a floor that exists so a board cannot be set to poll faster than the data behind it actually changes.
Screen parameters
Add text, number, date or select filters to the board. Their values arrive in your script's context, or as query-string and body fields for webhook sources, so filtering happens at the source rather than in the browser.
Seen by the right people
A board can be restricted to holders of a specific permission, filed into a menu folder, toggled active or inactive without deleting it, or made public so it opens with no login at all — a wall display, for instance.
On the floor, not just the desk
Turn on Show on Mobile and the board appears in the DataMagik mobile application, so the same numbers travel to the plant floor and the road.
See your Plex data on a board
Bring a live OEE, scrap or downtime board up on a screen, wired to the data you already have in Plex.
