Deploy a Chainlink Data Dashboard

Thanks to our partnership with Chainlink, we can deploy Xnodes with Chainlink Oracle Data Feeds and CCIP message data! Learn more about the integration here.

How to Build Your Own Chainlink Data Dashboard

Like all deployments, make sure to connect your web3 wallet and create a session.

Then visit the App Store from within your Xnode Studio dashboard and select the Chainlink app template.

After selecting the App Template, you will need to hit the Deploy button.

From there, choose your deployment target. For this example, we have already redeemed and deployed a DVM. Select it and then hit the Deploy button.

After Deploying to your deployment target (our DVM) then you can wait for the deployment to start running.

Once it is running you will now be able to select the "Go to Deployment" button.

On the Dashboard you can see your deployed bare metal server along with all the Apps installed on it. As we have only just created the DVM, it has our Chainlink Data Dashboard.

At the top left the current deployment status shows it is "Configuring".

Once the deployment status has moved to "Online", you will be able to view the app, by selecting the URL shortcut to the left of the App name. (See highlighted green square areas in the screenshot below).

By selecting the shortcut icon, it will navigate you to the deployment URL. From here you can see the current price of the various digital assets listed on the screen. If you wait for multiple time intervals to pass it will render a graph line to track price movements.

This utilises Chainlink Oracle Price Feeds and then displays them on a NextJS Template. This template is open source and you can customise and then deploy it via the Advanced Template process.

You can also select the tab at the top right, to see another important Chainlink feature called Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP). which is essentially trustless messaging between blockchains. Learn more about the CCIP here.
