Grist Widget API - Possible to get View id?

Ask for Help
1

I have a bit of a unique issue. I created a widget that communicates with both Grist and its own backend, and I need to access the widget options that was created inside Grist from outside of Grist.
The widget itself needs to be aware of the view id that it is in.

Is this possible?

Hi @abudiar,

No it’s not, but this would be super useful. Will you be able to describe this problem and propose some solution on our github?

As a workaround (what I’m doing) you can just append this id to the URL parameter for your custom widget.
