Multi-Choice Node

Multi-Choice Node

The Multi-Choice node provides a drop-down list of selection options to Rayven Live dashboard viewers. When an option is selected, this node will output its corresponding value into the data field name configured.

Adding a Multi-Choice node to your workflow

1. First, select your desired solution and navigate to Rayven Workflow.
2. Select ‘Controls’ from the left-hand panel.
3. Find the Multi-Choice node and drag it onto the canvas.
4. Provide input to the Multi-Choice node by connecting it to another node
5. Double click on the Multi-Choice node to open its configuration window.
   

Configuring your Multi-Choice node

1. First, give your node a Name. Choose something simple that clearly explains its purpose.
2. Under Data Field Name, enter the field in the JSON payload that you want to contain the values selected on the live dashboard.  
3. If you want, you can add a Widget Subtitle. This additional text helps explain the data presented in the node. Anything added here will appear directly under the Widget Name in a smaller font.
4. Select the Device/Device Label Name checkbox if you want the device or label name displayed on the widget.
5. Enter a Dropdown Name to appear as a list option on the live dashboard.
6. Enter a corresponding Dropdown Value to add to the Data Field Name in the outgoing JSON when this dropdown name is selected.
7. You can add additional rows for other drop-down names and values. 
8. You can organize your drop-down hierarchy by adding child rows.

Grouping by Device Label

Select how data should be grouped and displayed on the widget. To group data by device label, you must first create at least one label in the Device Labels section of the Workspace. See Creating Device Labels and Configuring Nodes Using Labels for more information.

1. Enter your chosen label under Device Label Name.  
2. Currently, the Multi-Choice node only supports 'No Grouping'. When you select No Grouping (widget per device), one widget will appear for each device.
