Config: UI Link ui-link

If you want to link to external resources from your Dashboard, you can do so with the ui-link config node. This will render a link in the side navigation menu, just like your Dashboard Pages, but will navigate directly to the URL you specify, even if out of the scope of Dashboard 2.0.

Properties

Prop	Description
UI	The UI (ui-base) that this page will be added to.
Path	The URL to navigate to when a user selects this link
Icon	Which Material Designs Icon to use for the page. No need to include the mdi- prefix.
Default State	Visibility - Defines the default visibility of this page in the side navigation menu. Interactivity - Controls whether the item is disabled/enabled in the side navigation menu. Both of these can be overridden by the user at runtime using a ui-control node.

Adding Links

To add a link to your Dashboard, you can use the Dashboard 2.0 side panel in the Node-RED editor. Click the + Link button to add a new item to the list. You can then configure the link with the relevant properties.
