Identify Cube Views Used in Workflows

Hello,

We are working to identify what Cube Views are used within the workflow structure.  For steps that include views of Forms, this is easy as the Form Audit tab shows exactly what Cube View is being used on the form.  For dashboards, we are having difficulty identifying which Cube Views are embedded within each dashboard easily.  We are aware of the "Show Objects That Reference the Selected Item" button within Cube Views, however it doesn't seem to show us clearly if a Cube View is included in a dashboard.

Does anyone know an easier method to identify what Cube Views are included in each workflow step and dashboard?

Thanks for the help!

Hello,

I would run the dashboard in Design mode (pictured Below) to be able to see what exact CV components are in the dashboard and in that component it will tell you what CV you are using. How it is used is if you run the dashboard in design mode you will see the red triangles in the upper right hand corner and then you can see the component in the left had window. If you select the pencil at the top it will navigate to that component in the application dashboard section.

Hello,

Thank you for the reply!  I was able to successfully open dashboards in Design mode and it does making tracing back to the Cube Views embedded easier.  Do you know if there is any way to get a complete listing of all Cube Views referenced within Dashboards referenced by workflows?  Rather than going by one by one through the Dashboards.  Thanks again for your help!

There isn't a simple way, but you can dig through the DashboardComponent table, looking for elements with the DashboardComponentType you need, and then inspecting their XmlData field.
