Quick Start

The ThoughtSpot Embed SDK allows you to embed the ThoughtSpot search experience, liveboards, visualizations or the even full app version.

Embedded Search

// NPM
import { SearchEmbed, AuthType, init } from '@thoughtspot/visual-embed-sdk';
// or ES6
// import { SearchEmbed, AuthType, init } from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@thoughtspot/visual-embed-sdk/dist/tsembed.es.js';

init({
    thoughtSpotHost: '<%=tshost%>',
    authType: AuthType.None,
});

const searchEmbed = new SearchEmbed(document.getElementById('ts-embed'), {
    frameParams: {
        width: '100%',
        height: '100%',
    },
});

searchEmbed.render();

Embedded Liveboard & Visualization

// NPM
import { LiveboardEmbed, AuthType, init } from '@thoughtspot/visual-embed-sdk';
// or ES6
// import { LiveboardEmbed, AuthType, init } from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@thoughtspot/visual-embed-sdk/dist/tsembed.es.js';

init({
    thoughtSpotHost: '<%=tshost%>',
    authType: AuthType.None,
});

const liveboardEmbed = new LiveboardEmbed(
    document.getElementById('ts-embed'),
    {
        frameParams: {
            width: '100%',
            height: '100%',
        },
        liveboardId: '<%=liveboardGUID%>',
        vizId: '<%=vizGUID%>',
    },
});

liveboardEmbed.render();

Embedded Full App

// NPM
import { AppEmbed, Page, AuthType, init } from '@thoughtspot/visual-embed-sdk';
// or ES6
// import { AppEmbed, AuthType, init } from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@thoughtspot/visual-embed-sdk/dist/tsembed.es.js';

init({
    thoughtSpotHost: '<%=tshost%>',
    authType: AuthType.None,
});

const appEmbed = new AppEmbed(
    document.getElementById('ts-embed'),
    {
        frameParams: {
            width: '100%',
            height: '100%',
        },
        pageId: Page.Data,
    });

appEmbed.render();

React Components

All the above flavors of embedding are also provided as React components for your convenience. The constructor options are passed as props and the event listeners can be attached using on<EventName> convention.

Search Component

import { init } from '@thoughtspot/visual-embed-sdk';
import { SearchEmbed } from '@thoughtspot/visual-embed-sdk/react';

// If you are using Webpack 4 (which is the default when using create-react-app v4), you would need to import
// the React components using the below:
import { SearchEmbed } from '@thoughtspot/visual-embed-sdk/lib/src/react';

init({
    thoughtSpotHost: '<%=tshost%>',
    authType: AuthType.None,
});

const MyComponent = ({ dataSources }) => {
    const onCustomAction = (actionEvent) => {
        // Do something with actionEvent.
    };
    
    return <SearchEmbed dataSources={dataSources} onCustomAction={onCustomAction} />
}
