Counter
The Counter widget displays a single large number drawn from a data source. It's the right widget for headline metrics like Open tickets, Tasks due today, Active workers, or Storage used.
Configuration
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Data from | The data source extension used to produce the value. The data source's own configuration appears below this selector. |
| Display as | How to format the value: number, decimal, percentage, bytes, seconds elapsed, or minutes elapsed. |
| Prepend | Optional text shown before the number (e.g. $). |
| Append | Optional text shown after the number (e.g. ` open`). |
| Color | An accent color for the widget. |
The supplied data sources include Manual Input, URL, Worklist (Metric), and the modern data query datasource. New widgets should prefer the data query datasource -- the others are legacy and being phased out.
For more control over layout, formatting, and combining multiple metrics into one widget, use the Sheet widget instead.
