Overview
The button component triggers specific actions or flows on a dashboard. Configure one or more buttons to fire predefined data operations, page navigation, or system commands — task-driven and fast. Common use cases:- Trigger data operations: configure buttons like “Update record” or “Delete record” — one click runs the action on data or the workflow.
- Page navigation and drill-down: set up “Back to home”, “View details”, “Product analysis” buttons to switch pages and drill into data.
- External links: “Documentation”, “Help center” buttons jump straight to external sites or systems — extend your app’s reach seamlessly.
