Embed dashboard with a static token parameter

This method is commonly used when you need to offer the same dashboard to multiple users within your application while ensuring each user accesses only their personalized data.

Token type filters are typically initialized on the backend as parameters and should not be transmitted from the frontend. Below is an example demonstrating how to implement filters during token generation:

const user: FilterUnknown['values'] = [
  {
    value: 'user-uuid',
    label: 'FirstName, LastName',
  }
];

const params: FiltersValues = { user };

const token = sign({ st, params }, companySecretKey);

In this example, we define a user filter with a single value of "user-uuid" and a label of "FirstName, LastName". Subsequently, we create a params object containing the user filter and utilize the sign method from the jsonwebtoken package to generate a token incorporating the params object.

Upon utilizing this token to embed a Sumboard dashboard, the user filter will automatically be applied to the dashboard, ensuring personalized data for each user.

WARNING

Take care to ensure the security of your token, especially when passing sensitive data in the params object.
