Create a custom tile in Analytcs

RaimondvandeSteeg — Tue, 11 May 2021 14:32:26 GMT

Hi Everyone,

According to this information (Link) it is possible to create a custom tile and data sources. But I can't find anywhere how to do this step by step.
When you have developed the SQL where do you store it and how? In addition, I wonder if there is already a library where costum-made tiles and data sourses are available?

Who can help me with this?
Thanks in advance.

The SQL for the custom tiles are supposed to be saved as stored procedures. Page 11 of this document gives some more details on this: https://portal.blueprism.com/system/files/2017-09/Guide%20to%20Blue%20Prism%20Tiles_0.pdf

I'm not aware of any public library for tiles but it does sound like a good idea. You can submit that as an idea here: https://community.blueprism.com/participate/ideation-home and hopefully there will be a library of publicly developed tiles available some time.

Yes, you can do this. To have a custom tile you need to create a StoredProcedure in SQL and put in a specific table under Blue Prism database. Then you can reference it in Blue Prism tiles section by creating a new tile, passing required input/output parameters.

Once you successfully test and save your Stored Procedure, refresh BluePrism, create a new tile, and under the list of Data Source, you will see your newly created custom Stored Procedure along with default ones. Once you select that Data Source you just need to configure the required input parameters and you can check the preview of data.

In the attached image, you can see I've created 3 new SP and it is visible under Data Souce dropdown (Named as Demo, Demo1 etc at the bottom)

Hope this helps to create customized tiles in Blue Prism.

Good Luck
