Frontend Infrastructure

Configuration and Definition of Dataset Views for Headless Resources
​​​​​​​

A new application, named Data Set Manager (Data Sets in the Control Panel) allows admins to define through a UI data set views for the different headless resources available. Admins will be able to choose the data source, as well as configure the columns to be available and the pagination options for the different views.

To enable this feature:

1. Add feature.flag.LPS-167253=true to your portal-ext.properties

2. Go to Instance settings > Feature Flags and enable “Data set manager” in the Beta tab.

In addition to the data set manager, two additional components have been added to provide the full value to the users:

• A new fragment, so this views can be integrated in any content page. Content managers will select the data set view to display on each fragment.

• A new frontend client extension, Frontend Data Set Cell Renderer, that allows developers to customize how any field of the data set view is rendered, providing total control of the look and feel of any column.
