Reporting Widget Overview

Summary​

This guide highlights the what, why, and how of Reporting Widget Plugins and provides links to additional relevant information.

What​

Reporting Widget Plugins empower developers to create custom visualizations for users so they can configure and render data in Qualtrics dashboards that meet their use cases.

Why​

There are situations where the customers dashboard needs exceed the standard widget offering from Qualtrics. These custom widgets may implement distinct user interfaces, perform proprietary/complex calculations, or visualize data in a unique way.

Who​

Reporting Widget Plugins can be built by any of these developer personas:

  • Qualtrics Customer
  • Qualtrics Partner
  • Qualtrics Employee

When​

Here are two generic but widely applicable use cases:

  1. A Qualtrics customer wants a custom map visualization of Italy with their customer Net Promoter Scores segmented by region.

  2. Another Qualtrics customer asks to see operational insights from an external system in a custom proprietary chart inside of Qualtrics.

How​

Follow the instructions in this quickstart to get up and running with your first Reporting Widget Plugin!
