## Documentation content

# Widgets

Applications are composed of widgets that create visual, interactive, and purpose-driven end-user applications.

There are two main categories of widgets:

- Default widgets are included in every application, no matter the template, and cannot typically be removed.
- Optional widgets can be added to customize an application for your specific use case. All optional widgets, which add visualizations, surface insights, or filter content, must be configured before using an application. If a widget is not configured or is configured incorrectly, DataRobot displays an error message.

The tabs below further describe each widget type:

**Default:**
Applications automatically include the following [default widgets](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/classic-ui/app-builder/reference/default-widgets.html) to make predictions and view prediction results. Note that [time series applications](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/classic-ui/app-builder/ts-app.html) have a different set of default widgets.

Widget
Description
Add Data
Allows you to upload prediction files.
All Rows
Displays prediction history by row.
Add New Row
Allows you to make single record predictions.
General Information
Displays feature values you want to view for each prediction that don't necessarily impact the results.
Prediction Information
Displays feature values likely to impact the prediction, as well as Prediction Explanations.
Prediction Explanations
Displays a chart with prediction results and a table with Prediction Explanations.

**Filter:**
[Filter widgets](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/classic-ui/app-builder/reference/optional-widgets.html#filters) provide additional filtering options within an application. The table below describes the available filter widgets:

Widget
Description
Categories
Filters by one or more categorical features.
Dates
Filters by date features.
Numbers
Filters by numeric features. You must define a Min and Max in the widget properties.

**Chart:**
[Chart widgets](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/classic-ui/app-builder/reference/optional-widgets.html#charts) add visualizations to an application and can be configured to surface important insights in your data and prediction results. The table below describes the available chart widgets:

Widget
Description
Line
Displays a Line chart for the selected features—useful for visualizing trends, understanding the distribution of your data, comparing values in larger datasets, and understanding the relationship between value sets.
Bar
Displays a Bar chart for the selected features—useful for understanding the distribution of your data and comparing values in smaller datasets.
Line + Bar
Displays a Line and Bar chart for the selected features. You can toggle between the two in the open application.
Area
Displays an Area chart for the selected features—useful for visualizing the composition of data.
Donut
Displays a pie chart based on one dimension and one measure—useful for visualizing the composition of data, especially how individual parts compare to the whole.
Single Value
Displays the average value of the selected feature.

**What-if and Optimizer:**
The [What-if and Optimizer widget](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/classic-ui/app-builder/edit-apps/whatif-opt.html) can be a scenario comparison tool, a scenario optimizer tool, or both by providing two tools for interacting with prediction results.

The initial configuration of this widget is based on the [template selected during app creation](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/classic-ui/app-builder/create-app.html#template-options).


## Add widgets

To add a widget to your application, open the Widget panel [https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/images/icon-widget.png](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/images/icon-widget.png) in the upper-left corner, then drag-and-drop a widget from the left pane onto the canvas.

## Configure widgets

To configure a widget, either click to select it or hover over the widget and click the pencil icon. Once selected, a panel opens on the left with the tabs described below:

**Data tab:**
The Data tab allows you to manage widget features, including adding and removing features, changing the feature display name, and setting constraints.

[https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/images/app-data-1.png](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/images/app-data-1.png)

Name
Element
Description
1
Manage
Adds or removes features from the widget, and add tooltips.
2
Set Constraints
Adds feature constraints that instruct the app to only include values falling in the range determined by numeric constraints or specific values for a categorical feature.
3
Dimensions / Measures
Displays the current feature selections for dimensions and measures. Click the pencil icon to change the display name of the feature in the widget.
4
Tooltips
Displays current feature names and any tooltips manually added in the
Manage Feature
window.

**Properties tab:**
On the Properties tab, you can control the widget's behavior and appearance. You may use these customization options, for example, to fine-tune a widget to better suit your use case or change the appearance to match your company's branding.

> [!NOTE] Note
> Configuration options are based on widget and project type, for example, multiclass projects include additional parameters for the What-if and Optimizer widget.
> 
> See also [Default widgets](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/classic-ui/app-builder/reference/default-widgets.html) or [Optional widgets](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/classic-ui/app-builder/reference/optional-widgets.html) for a complete list of customization options.

### Manage widget features

Configuring widget features is an important, and often necessary step when setting up an application. This controls, for example, chart widget visualizations and the features available when making single record predictions.

For many widgets, you must select both a dimension and a feature:

- Dimensions: Features that contain qualitative values used to categorize and reveal details in data.
- Measures: Features with numeric, quantitative values that can be measured.

To manage widget features:

1. Select the widget and click the Data tab in the left-hand panel.
2. ClickManage. TheManage Featurewindow opens.
3. In theDimensionstab, click the orange arrows next to one or more features you’d like to visualize on the x-axis. You can select categorical, date, and boolean features. Viewing feature detailsIn theManage Featurewindow, click a feature to view a histogram of the feature values in the training data.Instead of a histogram, location feature types display a static map with the training data represented by data points.
4. ClickMeasuresand click the arrow next to the feature you'd like to measure on the y-axis. TheMeasurestab only displays numeric and custom features.
5. ClickSaveto apply the configuration.

> [!NOTE] Note
> You must select at least one dimension and one measure to configure a widget (with the exception of the [Single Value](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/classic-ui/app-builder/reference/optional-widgets.html#single-value) widget).
> 
> If the widget displays a yellow error message stating there is no valid data, the application does not have access to the training data. You must create a project from the dataset in the AI Catalog.

#### Custom features

Similar to [feature transformations](https://docs.datarobot.com/en/docs/classic-ui/data/transform-data/feature-transforms.html) in the main DataRobot platform, you can create custom features for chart widgets in your application.

1. In theManage Featurewindow, clickAdd custom feature.
2. Name the custom feature, then type the function and features using thesupported syntax. The example below measures the cost of shipments per kilogram.
3. ClickCreate. The custom feature appears in theMeasurestab of theManage Featureswindow.

> [!NOTE] Note
> You can only use numeric features to create custom feature expressions.

#### Add a predicted class for multiclass projects

For multiclass projects, you can add the predicted class field to the All Rows widget.

1. On theHomepage of the application, select theAll Rowswidget and clickManage.
2. Click the orange arrow next to the feature marked(Predicted Class).
3. ClickSave—the predicted class is now displayed as a column in theAll Rowswidget.
