Unable to create new views in landing pages
Hi,
We are currently using 8.8.2 and trying to build a new application based on constellation (cosmos-react).
We have a simple requirement to provide a search screen for user and upon entering the information and click on 'Search', we need to call the api. I am unable to see my view that I want to add in my new landing page.
I only see 4 out of the box widgets and few list views. I tried creating a section rule from Dev studio and configured it as 'Dashboard widget' but that is also not appearing when I go back to 'App Studio' landing page.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Hope you have configured all the required settings for constellation and accessing your application over HTTPS.
Section rule created from dev studio does not work to configure from APP Studio.
You have to use APP Studio only to configure the view as well.
Custom widget you want to inject needs to put in through REACT and pushed in. refer to how to build custom components https://docs.pega.com/en-US/bundle/constellation-dx-components-88/page/constellation-dx-components/custom-components/create-custom-components.html

@SriHarsha Anika Thank you so much for your reply. Yes, we have configured necessary settings to run the constellation service. I tried creating a view in app studio, but the view that I created is not appearing in the landing pages. Is there specific type of views that I have to create to be shown in the landing pages? I can only see List type of views being visible in the landing pages.

@prathimak4186 Hi, we are also facing a similar situation where we have created a new view through the user interface tab on a case type but the view does not show up as an option in the landing page view options when you go to add a widget.
Did you manage to find a solution to make your custom views show up in the landing page by any chance?
Thanks

Hello @prathimak4186, few things here:
1. Sections are not used in Cosmos-React, we have views instead.
2. Views are to be created from the App Studio only.
3. Buttons are not available so you maybe you can redesign in a way that you have search fields in one view and the calling of the API happens when you submit the first view.
Hope this information helps!!

@SaurabhG7134 : can you pls provide some screen print for point 3 .
I have similar requirement to build custom search to fetch data via api and display on same screen. Many thanks in advance.

Hi @NavdeepK2565, what I was suggesting is to have a screenflow, where the first screen captures the data from the search field and then using that data you could perform the post processing DT/Activity and in the second screen build & display the results, this would be the ideal way imo. But, if anyway you want to display it on the same screen then you can make use of the DT- pyRefreshData, save it to your RS and class and build your search result list in there. Also, add the visibility condition to the view that will display the result grid.

1. In App studio, channels> web portal> landing page> home.
2. In region A, click +, click widget, and select the checkbox for your custom widget.
3. Perform integration testing in the widget by publishing it to infinity. Publish the widget to a pega infinity instance to view it in cotext of a landing page.

@TusharC43 If we are creating a custom widget using pega react components, could you please clarify below questions:
1. Are there any downside of things during the pega upgrade process?
2. Is this considered as customization?
3. Also once the custom widget is published into pega dev environment, Rule-UI-Component gets created. To promote to higher environments, pushing this Rule-UI-Component is sufficient or need to do anything and promote the component source code?
4. If a custom component is developed locally and published. Is there a way another developer can get the source of this custom component? For future maintenance/changes, this will be helpfull.

1 - No downside impact on creating a custom DX component
2 - I hope not
Regarding 3 and 4, the details are available in the below link (Creating and packaging the custom component).
Thanks,

Hi I have a similar requirement. Our project requires the user to first enter some info – as in First Name, Last Name, DOB, Address + specific LOB related info via User portal and then this data is to be persisted in a data table. Later on, for each record in the data table, if some business rules are satisfied, then we shall call an activity to create a case using the job scheduler. Now to display the form to the user I created a Form View called CustomerVehicle Details on the Vehicle Data class and I want to access this view from the User Portal. However, when I try to add the View on the landing page of the UserPortal, I only have option to create a View that is of a list type and is to be displayed as a Table, Gallery or Timeline. In fact when I create the view, the only template available is a Table. I just want the user to enter a single page of record. How to achieve this?
We are using the Infinity '23 version.

It's not doable in 23.1 constellation OOTB. you have to put down your own custom component.

Landing pages support Table, One column, Two column templates.
Since your requirements to fetch the information from data table, I hope this can be achieved through Table view and configure Add and Edit as Model views. Model views - you can build your own view based on your requirements.
To create a case from the data table records, it's available in 24.1 version onwards.

@prathimak4186 Did you find any solution to customize the landing pages with our own views/widgets?
