Custom Element Tag

<sas-content-area
  url="http://my-viya-server.com"
  initial-selection-index="0"
  selection-mode="single"
></sas-content-area>

Attributes

`url: string`

Specify the URL of the SAS Viya server that hosts the content to display. This is the full context root, including the protocol, optional port, and host.

`initial-selection-index: number`

The index of the item to be initially selected. This is most useful for starting off in a selected state, without necessarily knowing the details of the content that will be displayed. This only applies to the initial display of the ContentAreaElement. Any selections by the user, or via setSelectedIdentifiers will override this value, and changing the value of initial-selection-index from that point on will have no effect.

`selection-mode: string`

Specify the selection mode for the content.

Values

multiple

Multiple items can be selected using the checkbox. This is the default selection mode if selection-mode is not specified.

single

Only one item can be selected at a time.

Properties

`folderIdentifier: ItemIdentifier`

Specify a folder on the SAS Viya server that contains the content to display. Folder can mean several things, as specified by ItemIdentifier.

`itemIdentifiers: ItemIdentifier[]`

Specify an array of individual items on the SAS Viya server to display. See ItemIdentifier.

`contentFilterConfig: { queryModeFilter: string; }`

Specify options for filtering the content displayed in the content area.

`contentFilterConfig.queryModeFilter: string`

A SAS REST filter that is forwarded to underlying service requests. For example, to filter content to only show reports, use the following vaue: eq(contentType,'report').
