Visualize.js: Search for Dashboards, Reports and other resources in repository folder and its subfolders

Code Sample

The following code snippet is sufficient to pull a list of available Dashboards (with all relevant metadata) and log an array of Dashboard metadata objects into console:

visualize({
  auth: {
    name: "joeuser",
    password: "joeuser",
    organization: "organization_1"
  }
}, function(v) {
  v.resourcesSearch({
    folderUri: "/public/Samples",
    recursive: true,
    types: ["dashboard"],
    success: function(repo) {
      console.log(repo);
    },
    error: function(err) {
      console.log(err);
    }
  });
});

If you wish to only search a specific folder but not its subfolder, simply disable the recursive search:

recursive: true

You can also search for other resource types, as well as multiple resource types in the same search:

types: ["dashboard","reportUnit"]

Here is a client side code sample on JSFiddle.net platform which looks up Dashboards in /Public/Samples directory and renders the list of found Dashboard names in a drop down list:
