create

Description

Creates a new dashboard. Limit for number of saved searches in a dashboard is 20. Here’s an example of how you can use CLI to create a dashboard. For information on the details that must be passed to CREATE, you can use the GET API to obtain the Create.json file: oci management-dashboard dashboard get –management-dashboard-id “ocid1.managementdashboard.oc1..dashboardId1” –query data > Create.json. You can then modify the Create.json file by removing the id attribute and making other required changes, and use the oci management-dashboard dashboard create command.

The key names are pre-populated and match the command option names (converted to camelCase format, e.g. compartment-id –> compartmentId), while the values of the keys need to be populated by the user before using the sample file as an input to this command. For any command option that accepts multiple values, the value of the key can be a JSON array.

Options can still be provided on the command line. If an option exists in both the JSON document and the command line then the command line specified value will be used.

For examples on usage of this option, please see our “using CLI with advanced JSON options” link: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/API/SDKDocs/cliusing.htm#AdvancedJSONOptions

--wait-for-state [text]

This operation creates, modifies or deletes a resource that has a defined lifecycle state. Specify this option to perform the action and then wait until the resource reaches a given lifecycle state. Multiple states can be specified, returning on the first state. For example, --wait-for-state SUCCEEDED --wait-for-state FAILED would return on whichever lifecycle state is reached first. If timeout is reached, a return code of 2 is returned. For any other error, a return code of 1 is returned.

Accepted values are:

ACTIVE
--wait-interval-seconds [integer]

Check every --wait-interval-seconds to see whether the resource has reached the lifecycle state defined by --wait-for-state. Defaults to 30 seconds.

Example using required parameter

Copy and paste the following example into a JSON file, replacing the example parameters with your own.

    oci management-dashboard dashboard create --generate-param-json-input data-config > data-config.json
    oci management-dashboard dashboard create --generate-param-json-input nls > nls.json
    oci management-dashboard dashboard create --generate-param-json-input tiles > tiles.json
    oci management-dashboard dashboard create --generate-param-json-input ui-config > ui-config.json

Copy the following CLI commands into a file named example.sh. Run the command by typing “bash example.sh” and replacing the example parameters with your own.

Please note this sample will only work in the POSIX-compliant bash-like shell. You need to set up the OCI configuration and appropriate security policies before trying the examples.
