Channel Navigator

A new navigation tool, Channel Navigator, has been added to FTS Apollo™ to improve your ability to access Dashboard information and analytics.

All of your personal Channels are accessible from the “Select Channel” dropdown in Channel Navigator.

Channel Navigator Show

A new menu item, Show Navigator has been added to the Dashboard Menu. Clicking on this option will bring up the Channel Navigator.

Channel Navigator

Use the Select a channel drop-down menu at the top of the widget to select the Channel to use for navigation.

Channel Navigator Widget

Select the Channel you would like to use to help set your Dashboard Context.

Once the channel is selected, the Entities in the Channel Definition will be displayed as a clickable list.

Navigator List

Clicking on one of the items in the list will reset the Dashboard Context.

Dashboard Context

You can sort the navigator list itself by clicking on the column header to be sorted.

Note

All Dashboards are enabled for Channel Navigator (meaning Dashboards do not need to be edited to use.md)***

Dashboards may or may not be appropriate for using Channel Navigator. Dashboards with pre-loaded channels or entities are best used as they are. General purpose Dashboards that are Channel / Entity agnostic are good use cases for Channel Navigator
