Embedded Datapoint Callback on Free Form Dashboard

I have a dashboard where I want to use the free-form, interactive layout but have been unable to add actions to this dashboard using the JS SDK. There are no errors, there is no timeout, it just appears that the addVisualActions function doesn’t get called.

Using essentially the same dashboard (except with a tiled layout), and using exactly the same code the actions are added.

Is this a limitation, or do I have to do something special to embed datapoint callbacks (actions) with a free-form dashboard?

Thank you!

Hello @ltaylor!

That’s frustrating that it did not provide any kind of error message. I would double check that all of the ids that you entered match correctly as a first step.

That being said, considering you did not receive an error message it will be difficult to troubleshoot here. I recommend creating an AWS support ticket. Here are the steps to open a support case. If your company has someone who manages your AWS account, you might not have direct access to AWS Support and will need to raise an internal ticket to your IT team or whomever manages your AWS account. They should be able to open an AWS Support case on your behalf. Hope this helps!

Thanks for replying, I know there wasn’t a lot here but I figured I’d throw it out there anyway. I was hoping maybe some from QS would read it and would know if this is an issue, known limitation, or possibly even a feature request (i.e. adding custom callbacks to embedded free-form sheets on a dashboard).

I did double and triple check my IDs so I’m sure they were correct; I do believe I was able to narrow it down to the sheet type. I will open a support case. Thanks again!
