Implementation of Validation Feedback in the Device List Widget

Hi guys,

I recently started using the Device List widget and noticed the absence of an important functionality: there is no indication for the user that an action was completed successfully or if an error occurred. In contrast, when I use the input form, I can add a validation field to provide this feedback to the user. I’m wondering if there is any similar feature available in the Device List widget, especially considering that actions are initiated via custom buttons.

Hi,

You are correct that the Device List widget does not have a built-in feature to indicate the success or failure of an action. This widget is designed to display device-related information and allows for the editing of tags or configuration parameters, but it does not provide direct user notifications.

However, you can indeed utilize an analysis to notify users about the outcome of their actions. By implementing an analysis script, you can send notifications to the Tago Run application or to the Admin panel, informing users whether the operation was successful or encountered an error.

For notifying the Admin, you can refer to the following documentation:

Notification.send method

For notifying users in the Tago Run application, please consult:

Run.notificationCreate method

These resources will guide you in setting up notifications that can provide the necessary feedback to users after they perform actions within the Device List widget.

Do you know which widgets besides the input form have a validation option?

Only the widgets from the input have a validation option.
