Displaying data

After adding a data provider and selecting a datasource, the next step is to add a component that allows you to display your data. In many cases you will use one of the following components:

• Card
• Chart
• Repeater

In the below example, a single Data Provider can supply information to the Sales Bar Chart, as well as a Repeater that displays a Container with a Text component for every row the data provider returns.

Using Multiple Data Providers

Data Providers can use other Data Providers as a source

Each time a Data Provider is set to fetch information from a table or query, it creates extra network traffic on screen-load. If you're re-using data in multiple components on your screen, consider using a Data Provider to fetch the table without filters, and then any subsequent Data Providers can fetch from that first Data Provider and filter as needed, cutting down on the amount of queries to your database.
