How to add image from local server?

Hello Helical Team,
I am using Helical Insight Enterprise Edition. In Dashboard Designer i want to add image from my local environment. We can’t provide image URL from web as many of our customers use this in off line mode (Without Internet). How to add image from our local server ?

Hello Anu,

We do have option to add image into Dashboard Designer from local environment as well. Below is the steps you can follow to achive this :

  1. Create any folder (let us say “Image”) inside hi-repository. (You will find hi-repository where you have installed Helical Insight application)

For Example : C:\Program Files\Helical Insight\hi\hi-repository

  1. Add all those images you want to use inside “Image” folder which you have created inside hi-repository.

For Example : You have added one image file “abc.png” inside Image folder.

  1. Now log in into Helical Insight application and go to Dashboard Designer.

  2. Right click and click on Add Image.

  3. In the URL section provide below path :

Let us say if you want to use abc.png file from “Image” folder then URL will be as below :

getExternalResource.html?path=Image/abc.png

  1. Save this and you will able to see image inside Dashboard Designer.

Thanks,
Helical Team
