The DataviewConfig.groovy validation page displays validation results for each section of the DataviewConfig.groovy file. Each of the sections corresponds to a particular page in Viewpoint. Note that some portions of the DataviewConfig.groovy file may not be applicable to your particular suite.

For detailed information about how to use this configuration file to customize your instance of Viewpoint, see Dataview and Details customization.

File validation

Displays whether or not the JSON configuration for a particular page passed or failed.

The validation check that Viewpoint runs on these files only checks that the JSON syntax is correct. It does not validate that your customizations will actually work.

If a JSON configuration failed validation, its corresponding page will still load, but without the configurations you attempted to make.

When you click a file heading (for example, dataview.events), the page expands to display the JSON objects contained in the configuration file. For example:

You cannot edit the JSON for configuration files from this interface. The DataviewConfig.groovy validation page only displays the JSON that is contained in the actual individual sections of the DataviewConfig.groovy file. For information about where you access the file and how to use it to customize your instance of Viewpoint, see Dataview and Details customization.

Show all

Show broken only

Displays only sections of the JSON configuration that did not pass validation.

Expand all

Contract all

Hides the formatted JSON code for each section so that only the file heading displays.
