VisualForce Events for Customizing the Wizard UI

This reference section explains the details of using VisualForce for customizing the Wizard user interface.

Event Name	Subscribe/Publish	Description	Response
`ready`	publish	Fired from client indicating they are ready to receive events.	Response contains all the metadata: page, variableDefinitions, initialValues needed to render the questions and possible answers for the page.
`update`	publish	Fired from client when ready to update one or more variables.	Variables with errors messages.
`visibility`	publish	Fired from client to check ‘visibility’ of one or more questions.	Variables and their visibility enum.
`values`	publish	Fired from client to request the most up-to-date values of each question.	The values of all variables in the entire wizard.
`next`	subscribe	Fired from parent when user clicks “continue” button. May or may not advance the page. If there are errors in the variable values, the page will not advance.	A list of variables that are required with no values.
`resize`	publish	Fired from client to change the size of the VisualForce page.	None.
`options`	publish	Fired from client to get a list of ‘options’ for filling in drop-down list boxes.	List will be filtered for “queryable,” “excludes,” “exclude selected.” “Tags” will be applied to indicate which option values are “default,” “recommended,” or “previous” values. You can use this for sObjects, sObjectFields, string enums, and number enums.
`computed`	publish	Fired from client to set the computed (suggested) values for a variable.	Variables with success or error messages.
`close`	publish	Fired from client to close the wizard. No actions are taken as part of the close.	None.
`buttons`	publish	Change the text of the Back and Next button. Can also enable or disable the Back or Next button.
`create`	publish	Fired from the client to create an app before the final screen. Calls `POST /wave/folder` and returns results.	The status of the POST call. Success if app creation is kicked off successfully (not final app status), otherwise Fail.
`dataset`	COMING SOON	Dataset	Coming soon; not currently supported in this release. We intend to implement this as an ‘options’ event.
`dataset fields`	COMING SOON	Dimensions, Measures tied to parent datasets	Coming soon; not currently supported in this release. We intend to implement this as an ‘options’ event.
