Setting up Certinia Card Panels
There are two Certinia card panels:
- The FDN Cards Panel component enables you to add a single component containing multiple highlight and KPI cards to an object's Certinia Lightning record page.
- The FDN App Page Cards Panel component enables you to add a single component containing multiple KPI cards to any app page, such as workspaces.
You can clone and rename existing component configurations in the following component builders:
- Cards Panel Configuration Builder: For panel configurations to be used on object record pages.
- App Page Cards Panel Config Builder: For panel configurations to be used on app pages.
The configurations that you create in these component builders are displayed in a list in the Lightning App Builder for the relevant component.
You must have the Certinia Configuration Builders permission set assigned to you to use these component builders. You can also delete your own configurations.
To set up a cards panel configuration:
- From the App Launcher, select Cards Panel Configuration Builder or App Page Cards Panel Config Builder, depending on the page type you want to create the configuration for.
In the component builders, existing card panel configurations are displayed on the left and the Cards Panel configuration preview pane on the right.
- To create a configuration, click New. The New Configuration window opens.
- Enter a unique label for the panel. This is displayed in the My Configurations list and you can select this configuration when adding the component to the record page.
When you click outside this field, the API Name field is populated.
