Views page showing saved searches that update live with the blockchain Views allow you to save your searches. The best part of creating views is that they dynamically update with the blockchain, so you can set them up and watch them refresh live as new blocks are mined.

Create a View

To create a View, you must:
1
Open the command menu and create a search
2
In your action bar, click Save as View
3
Add a name for your View
4
Hit Save

Go to Views

To find all the Views you’ve created, you can navigate to the Views page within your sidebar. There, you will find all your Views, and you can separate them by search category type.

Quick actions on Views

If you hover over any View, there are quick actions you can take including: renaming, duplicating, sharing, and deleting the View.

Views as building blocks

The full power of searching in Rover comes from using Views within building blocks. This is how more complex searching can be accomplished quickly and simply. For example, let’s say you created an Address View called Engineering Wallets and want to find all the transactions that involved any of the addresses in Engineering Wallets. All you need to do is use the Participants building block and search for your view. CMD-Enter, and done! You get back a table of all the transactions from any of the addresses in Engineering Wallets View.

View types

It’s important to keep in mind that views can only be used in building blocks that match the building block’s input type. In the previous example, I was able to pass in the Engineering Wallets because the Participants building block’s input expects addresses as an input. Since Engineering Wallets are addresses, this worked!

Views in Tables

Whenever you make a search, you can add the View property as a column. If that row is part of a View you’ve created, you will see the View appear in the column.
