How to add Record Producer Variable Set in Data Table Widget?

[Racel Ruperez]

We have this table of records that are shown in portal using the Data table from URL definition widget. We also added a new variable set in the record producer which contains two variables and these are not mapped to any of the fields in our table. 

Now, we would like this variable set to be visible when we open our existing records in the portal. Like adding the variable set in the widget, maybe?

How do we achieve this?

That widget does use the form widget to display individual records - at least OOB, so the solution outlined above would work.

Here's how to add a variable formatter to task tables: Configure the default variable editor for a task-extended table.

And it seems to work en Quebec too.

Oh, that's good to hear, @János. However, the table I'm working on does not extend to Task table. And also, I only need to show a specific variable set and not all of the variables.

Any workaround for this?

That requires a completely custom solution. Like cloning the form widget, adding the new functionality to it, creating a new page that uses the new widget and setting up a page map to make the list use the new page + widget when displaying records.
