Example
How to Obtain a Dashboard Item’s Client Data in ASP.NET Core
This example gets underlying data that corresponds to a particular visual element and displays this data in the dxPopup widget with the child dxDataGrid.
Handle the DashboardControlOptions.onBeforeRender event to get access to the DashboardControl instance:
<div id="myPopup"></div>
<div style="position: absolute; left: 0; top: 0; right: 0; bottom: 0;">
@(Html.DevExpress().Dashboard("dashboardControl1")
.Width("100%")
.Height("100%")
.ControllerName("DefaultDashboard")
.WorkingMode(DevExpress.DashboardWeb.WorkingMode.ViewerOnly)
.OnBeforeRender("onBeforeRender")
)
</div>
Handle the ViewerApiExtensionOptions.onItemClick event and call the ViewerApiExtension.requestUnderlyingData method to get the underlying data:
function onBeforeRender(sender) {
var dashboardControl = sender;
var viewerApiExtension = dashboardControl.findExtension('viewerApi');
if (viewerApiExtension)
viewerApiExtension.on('itemClick', onItemClick);
$("#myPopup").dxPopup({
width: 800, height: 600,
title: "Underlying data",
showCloseButton: true
});
}
function onItemClick(args) {
var underlyingData = [];
args.requestUnderlyingData(function (data) {
dataMembers = data.getDataMembers();
for (var i = 0; i < data.getRowCount(); i++) {
var dataTableRow = {};
$.each(dataMembers, function (_, dataMember) {
dataTableRow[dataMember] = data.getRowValue(i, dataMember);
});
underlyingData.push(dataTableRow);
}
var $grid = $('<div/>');
$grid.dxDataGrid({
height: 500,
scrolling: {
mode: 'virtual'
},
dataSource: underlyingData
});
var popup = $("#myPopup").data("dxPopup");
$popupContent = popup.content();
$popupContent.empty();
$popupContent.append($grid);
popup.show();
});

Example
The following example shows how to drill down in the Web Dashboard control on the client side.
The example contains a dxSelectBox UI component, a Grid dashboard item, and a button.
The ViewerApiExtension.getAvailableDrillDownValues method call obtains the categories available for drill-down in the Grid item. The dxSelectBox

When the Grid displays a list of products (the bottom-most detail level), you can only drill up, and the Drill Down button changes to Drill Up. When you click the Drill Up button, the ViewerApiExtension.performDrillUp method is called. This action returns you to the top detail level (a list of categories). The ViewerApiExtension.canPerformDrillDown and ViewerApiExtension.canPerformDrillUp method calls check whether the Drill-Down or Drill-Up are available.
