📊 Custom UI, boosted
5 months ago by Adriano Toro
The Custom UI widget, in which you can mix UI components at will in order to build your own interface, is now even more robust thanks to the addition of 4 new components you can use in your widget:
- Toggle button
- Dropdown menu (of single or multiple choice)
- Hour picker
- Numeric input
Once the Custom UI is configured, you can trigger a webhook to an UbiFunction or 3rd-party platform to processCustom UI, boosted the input data — or just go to another Ubidots dashboard or an external link. It can be used for many solutions, such as the following:
- A truck driver who inputs data in a smartphone about incidents along the route. This data enriches the GPS data already collected in Ubidots.
- A machine expert who just finished a maintenance task and leaves the maintenance date with comments in a tablet located next to the machine.
- An IoT-fleet operator who sets configuration parameters and triggers a downlink function when hitting “send”.
