Genesis: 2 instances - how to embed the second

Hi

I have made a new instance regarding a new welcome menu to the users. Therefore I have two instances:

  1. The original when installing Genesis
  2. Welcome menu (named Welcome9)

Du to practicality I need to embed number 2 into an existing dashboard. When entering the dashboard name ( container_bag_(App)_(Main)) in the embedded it takes number 1.

Is there a possibility to enter Welcome9/Pnav_(App)_(Main)/container_bag_(App)_(Main) or how do I refer to the correct container_bag_(App)_(Main)?

Or is it the wrong dashboard I am referring to?

Regards

Ole Strøm

    The simple answer (this also applies outside of Genesis), to share a dashboard inside a different workspace (to where it sits) is to pass in the fully qualified name e.g. WsName.DbName or Welcome9.container_bag_App_Main to the embedded dashboard in your Homepage workspace.

    Hope this helps

    Hi Ole_S_P​ 

    I think this is possible but i am finding your use case difficult to follow based on the description alone

    Please can you provide screenshots to flesh out your use case?

    Hi 

    In an existing Dashboard called Homepage I want to embed a dashboard made in Genesis. Therefore my thought was write name af dashboard in green box.

     

    But in Genesis in have made two instances. 

    1: Genesis (the original - green boxes)

    2: Welcome9 ( an new one - red boxes)

    My problem is that I want to refer in my embedded dashboard to the red box -  and not the green box. Due to alphabetical order the green box is choosen (I think).

        There is guidance in the Genesis documentation on setup for sharing content between workspaces as there are also parameters to consider
