Events

Events enable a portlet to send and receive events from other portlets and execute specified commands in response.

Portlets can send events to other portlets on the same or different pages, as long as the portlets are within the same Application Package

Receiving events from

To receive an event from another portlet, click Add and select from the list of available portlets. If using events, remember that the component's input parameters may need to be adjusted accordingly.

The following events are available:

• Post-Fetch: The full dataset is retrieved from the data source, and the filter is applied after the data has been fetched (i.e., the filter is applied post-data fetch).

• Pre-Fetch: The filter is applied before fetching, so only the filtered dataset is retrieved from the data source (i.e., the filter is applied pre-data fetch).

• On Refresh: Refreshes the portlet with the same dataset. This feature only works when the emitting and receiving portlets are on the same page.

Sending events to

Sending events to is an information section that indicates whether the portlet is sending events to other portlets. This section displays the names of these portlets and the type of event. It is not editable; to remove an event, you must modify the event configuration in the portlet the event is being sent to.
