(v24) Embeddable Analytics

Embeddable Analytics

This applies to: Visual Data Discovery

Symphony was built for extensibility and for integrating business intelligence into other applications. Integrations can be used to pass context between applications and Symphony as part of your workflow or data exploration experience.

There are several options for embedding analytics:

• White-label for rebranding Symphony to display another organization’s logo, fonts, colors, etc. See Product Customizations.

• Data integration using the Symphony API to run a query from your application and then display or use the data pulled by the query. The query definition is invoked by an action in the Symphony UI and is based on the filters applied to a Symphony visual and on the data and limit specifications in the application integration definition for the visual data source. The invoked action creates the query definition and sends it to your application. See Integrate Visual Data Into Your Applications.

The behavior of Symphony visuals and dashboards when they are embedded into your applications is controlled by the interactivity settings for the visuals themselves. See Control How Users Interact With a Visual.

SymphonyREST APIs use common design practices to be easily navigable by any user. The APIs are documented with Swagger, allowing for interactive experiences when conducting experimentation and testing.

API documentation is provided with your Symphony installation at this link: <symphony-URL>/discovery/swagger-ui.html.

Important: Some API endpoints are marked as experimental in the Swagger documentation we provide. These endpoints are in the early stages of design and are subject to change. We make no commitment to their stability and may remove them without notice. These experimental endpoints are not recommended for use in production.
