How It Works

Building dashboards with ReportBurster is a simple three-step process:

Step 1: Configure Your Report

In the ReportBurster main application, go to Configuration → Reports and set up your report:

  • Define the data source (database connection, file, or script)
  • Configure visualization options (table columns, chart type, pivot dimensions)
  • Set up parameters if needed

Each report type has dedicated documentation:

Step 2: Get the Embed Code

In the report configuration, go to the Usage tab. ReportBurster generates ready-to-use HTML snippets for each component:

  • rb-tabulator - Interactive data table
  • rb-chart - Chart visualization
  • rb-pivottable - Pivot table
  • rb-parameters - Parameter controls
  • rb-report - Complete report viewer

Click Copy to copy any component's embed code.

Step 3: Paste in the FlowKraft Frontend App

Open the FlowKraft Frontend App and paste your embed code into a view. The component automatically connects to ReportBurster, fetches its configuration, and renders the visualization.

Tip: You can also embed components in any other web application (plain HTML, WordPress, Angular, Vue, React, etc.). See Embed Web Components for details.

Web Components

ReportBurster provides five web components you can embed anywhere:

ComponentDescription
<rb-report>Complete report viewer with parameters and all visualizations
<rb-tabulator>Interactive data table with sorting, filtering, and pagination
<rb-chart>Charts (bar, line, pie, area, scatter, and more)
<rb-pivottable>Pivot tables for multi-dimensional data analysis
<rb-parameters>Parameter form for user input (dates, dropdowns, etc.)
