Stat

Easily Aggregate Data


Stat Widget

The Stat widget is a powerful tool used to display aggregate data metrics like sums, averages, counts, minimums, and maximums. It’s highly versatile and can be used to summarize important numerical data from any field in your dataset, such as donation amounts, project milestones, or task completion rates. In the settings, you can define the field you want to apply the stat to, as well as choose the operation (e.g., sum, count). You can combine multiple Stat widgets to create dashboards showing key performance indicators at a glance.

For example, a non-profit might use the Stat widget to show:

  • Total Donations: Displaying the cumulative donation sum.
  • Average Donation: Calculating the mean donation size.
  • Maximum Donation: Highlighting the largest individual donation.

Settings:

  • Field: Select the specific field you want the operation to apply to, such as “Amount,” “Score,” or any numerical field.
  • Operator: Choose the operation to apply to the selected field:
    • Count: The total number of records.
    • Average: The mean value of the field.*
    • Sum: The cumulative total of the field’s values.*
    • Minimum: The smallest value in the field.*
    • Maximum: The largest value in the field.*

* To use these operators your field must be a MONEY field, and IS SEARCHABLE selected, on the edit OBJECT page.

This flexibility allows you to create a dashboard that gives users critical, at-a-glance information based on your dataset. For example, in a donation tracker, you could use it to display “Total Donated,” “Average Donation,” or “Maximum Donation” stats to highlight key financial data. This widget adds power to your data presentation and enhances the interactivity of your application.

With its visual clarity and flexible settings, the Stat widget is perfect for creating summary views and dashboards.
