Description


Starting with the next major Web SDK release, version 1024.0.0, we are updating the underlying dashboarding technology.

As part of this change, every application that uses the Web SDK dashboarding technology must import the gridstack dependency.

Additionally, a significant part of the custom implementation in the DashboardChildChange class has been removed.

Breaking change

Applications that rely on dashboarding features but do not import gridstack will fail to build or run correctly after upgrading to 1024.0.0.

Impact: Custom applications built with the Web SDK dashboarding technology are affected.

Migration:

  • Add gridstack as a dependency and import it in each application that uses dashboarding features.
  • Review custom integrations that depend on the previous DashboardChildChange implementation and update them as required.
