The Ed-Fi “Classic Dashboards” are no longer supported through the Ed-Fi Alliance. You can still receive support and maintenance through the Ed-Fi vendor community. Please look at any of the vendors’ dashboard solutions on the Registry of Ed-Fi Badges or the Ed-Fi Starter Kits if you are looking for a visualization solution to use with the Ed-Fi ODS. This documentation will remain available to assist existing Classic Dashboard implementers.
Metric Configuration Tool - Import Dashboard Types Reference
The Metric Configuration Tool manipulates metadata that the dashboard application uses to render the content of metric values in the user interface. This section is a reference of the CSV files involved.
The metrics information used by the Metric Configuration Tool is contained in the following CSV files which are loaded by the ETL Application:
- DashboardExport.MetricVariantType.csv
- DashboardExport.DomainEntityType.csv
- DashboardExport.Metric.csv
- DashboardExport.MetricAction.csv
- DashboardExport.MetricActionType.csv
- DashboardExport.MetricAssessmentAcademicSubject.csv
- DashboardExport.MetricAssessmentCategoryType.csv
- DashboardExport.MetricAssessmentReportingMethod.csv
- DashboardExport.MetricAssessmentRollupMapping.csv
- DashboardExport.MetricAssessmentTranslator.csv
- DashboardExport.MetricCellMetadata.csv
- DashboardExport.MetricCellTypeMetadata.csv
- DashboardExport.MetricColumnMetadata.csv
- DashboardExport.MetricFootnoteDescriptionType.csv
- DashboardExport.MetricNode.csv
- DashboardExport.MetricState.csv
- DashboardExport.MetricStateType.csv
- DashboardExport.MetricType.csv
- DashboardExport.MetricVariant.csv
Subsequent runs of the ETL Application will automatically re-load the metadata into the Dashboard database. The CSV files are located in in the ETL Runtime folder under Edfi.Runtime\Reading\Queries\[ODSVersion]\DashboardTypes.
