Data View Category
Contents
Data views can be categorized into the following types:
▪Dynamic Data View (
or 
)
▪Static Data View (
)
▪Map Data View (
)
Dynamic Data View
Dynamic Data View refers to those data views generated by applying Data View Templates (DVT) to a map page. See Applying a Dynamic Data View to View Alert and Drill Down for more details.
Tip: The indicates the data view template has been scheduled to run; the icon indicates the data view template hasn't been scheduled to run.
Tip: To pull live data in a data view, you can toggle the switch from Cache to Live.
Monitor Data View
Monitor Data View refers to data views generated by applying the flash probes and variables enabled by the devices on the current map. You can get the latest flash probe and variable results by clicking the 
icon.
Static Data View
Static Data View (SDV) is a snapshot that contains the device data at a particular moment.
SDVs can be generated by using the following ways:
▪Run the scheduled Qapps or Gapps. You can browse these SDVs in the folder Scheduler.
▪Apply a DVT and save it as an SDV.
▪Edit an existing SDV or Map Data View, and save it as an SDV.
Map Data View
Map Data View refers to a data view that is saved within a map, and can only be visible in the current map. It is generated by saving a dynamic/static data view.
To view Map Data Vies, navigate to the Static pane.
Tip: You can click the above pencil icon to edit the map data view after the data view is applied.
Default Data View
By default, devices on each map page are displayed in the default data view.
Tip: To update a default data view with the latest data saved in the database, you can configure through a scheduled benchmark task. See Updating Default Data View for more details.
