Display iSheet Data on Home Page/Wiki

Sean Pillai

I recall that there is a simple way to display iSheet records on a site's home page (or wiki) in a table or single-item format.  I'm referring to data from each individual row as opposed to charts and other aggregate data visualizations.  However, I haven't been able to find the instructions.  Any assistance would be appreciated.  I'm trying to display iSheet data in a more user-friendly manner by, for example, placing the contents of each column in a separate row, with each iSheet row corresponding to a separate table on the home page/wiki.

 

Simplified example:

(1)  This is my iSheet record:

 

Client Name Client Jurisdiction Client Code Client Mailing Address Client Relationship Manager(s)
Acme Co. Delaware 1234567 123 5th Ave., New York, New York Bob Smith; Amy Jones

 

(2)  I'd like to generate the following on the home page/wiki (including a link at the bottom that would allow the user to edit that particular record):

 

Client Name Acme Co.
Client Jurisdiction Delaware
Client Code 1234567
Client Mailing Address 123 5th Ave., New York, New York
Client Relationship Manager Bob Smith; Amy Jones

Edit Record [THIS LINK WOULD TRIGGER AN EDIT OF THE RECORD

  • There isn't a way to just drop an isheet on the home/wiki page (as a widget) as far as I'm aware, though it would be a really useful feature. The only ways to get it is either export XML with custom coding, REST API with custom coding or iframe (with some dynamically injected css to hide other parts of the page).

    The edit record button is also possible by opening a popup window to the isheet page with a url param to filter the item to the 1 item by its ID, and then inject JS in the popup to click the edit button. You can then use the jquery object from the popup to monitor for certain ajax requests (or if the edit modal is closed) to run events like onsave, onclose, etc... Hopefully they make a nice utility function for this (and view/add) one day.

    There actually is some JS code using highq libraries you can use to open the edit modal on the same page, but it is volatile in the sense that it could just change one day, plus its has some side effects.
