Description
These parameters and the possible property values for the respective dashboard widget field objects allow to configure the Top items widget in dashboard.create and dashboard.update methods.
Widget fields properties are not validated during the creation or update of a dashboard. This allows users to modify built-in widgets and create custom widgets, but also introduces the risk of creating or updating widgets incorrectly. To ensure the successful creation or update of the Top items widget, please refer to the parameter behavior outlined in the tables below.
Parameters
The following parameters are supported for the Top items widget.
| Parameter | type | name | value | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Refresh interval | 0 | rf_rate | 0 - No refresh; 10 - 10 seconds; 30 - 30 seconds; 60 - (default) 1 minute; 120 - 2 minutes; 600 - 10 minutes; 900 - 15 minutes. |
|
| Host groups | 2 | groupids.0 | Host group ID. Note: To configure multiple host groups, create a dashboard widget field object for each host group with an incremented number in the property name. This parameter is not supported if configuring the widget on a template dashboard. |
|
| Host groups (Widget) | 1 | groupids._reference | Instead of Host group ID:ABCDE._hostgroupids - set a compatible widget (with its Reference parameter set to "ABCDE") as the data source for host groups.This parameter is not supported if configuring the widget on a template dashboard. |

For multiple hosts, the parameter Host groups must either be not configured at all or configured with at least one host group that the configured hosts belong to. This parameter is not supported if configuring the widget on a template dashboard. |

Examples
The following examples aim to only describe the configuration of the dashboard widget field objects for the Top items widget. For more information on configuring a dashboard, see dashboard.create.
Configuring a Top items widget
Configure a Top items widget that displays data for host "10084" and only for items for which the tag with the name "component" contains the value "cpu". In addition, display the data with hosts located at the top and use a colored gauge bar for cell representation.
