Name Description
1 Force Get Embeds

Boolean value that is used to get embeds only for Cards. If set to "true", the plugin will return embeds for all Cards, even if embedding was not enabled.

NOTE: 

  • Embedding for Dashboards is not available in the current implementation.
  • We strongly recommend enabling embedding for each individual Card on the Domo side as a more secure and reliable approach. See instructions under Enabling Embedding for Domo Cards.
2 Object Type Filter

Narrow down the list of documents to fetch in a comma-separated list. Available values are: dataset, dashboard, app, card.

NOTE: If left blank, the Plugin will return all object types except for Apps. To return all of the available object types, specify all of them (dataset, dashboard, app, card).
3 Page Name Specify the name of the page (Dashboard) for which you want to get a list of objects.
4 Page Preview Boolean value that is used when getting an image for Dashboards. 
  • If set to "true", only the top part of a Dashboard will be displayed. 
  • If set to "false", an entire Dashboard will be displayed. 
5 Login/Password Specify credentials to the Domo account to view images of objects that are set to "Private" in Domo.

4. Proceed with Advanced Configuration

Advanced Configuration settings can be set to default values unless Data Source requires more precise tuning. For more details on how to proceed, refer to Advanced Data Source Configuration.
