Download

  • For both desktop and workstation applications, download the desktop version of VitaraCharts.

License

On MicroStrategy Desktop and Workstation we no longer enforce license validation. So use of VitaraCharts is freely permitted on these applications.

Ensure there are no existing or old build files in your local machine’s Workstation folder. Delete any such files completely before deploying a new build in Workstation.

*\Microstartegy\Workstation\Code\plugins*

Deployment Steps

There are two ways to deploy in Offline Mode:

1.UI Installation- Deployment from adding directly plugin to the ‘+’sign:

  • Open an existing MicroStrategy dossier or create a new one.

  • You will see a ​+​ sign to add visualizations.

  • Click on the ‘+’ sign, and a small import visualization window will open. Select the downloaded zip file.

  • Once the Vitara visualization is successfully imported, you will see a message stating that all custom visualizations have been imported successfully.

2.Manual Installation- Deployment by Extracting and Pasting the Folder:

  • Once the file is downloaded, extract the zip file to your specified location. You will find that under the Vitara Charts folder, there is another Vitara Charts folder containing several subfolders. Move the inner folder that contains the files.

  • Paste the extracted folder into the \Microstrategy\Workstation\Code\plugins path on your local machine.

  • Open Workstation and create a new dossier. You should see the Vitara charts in the custom option.

Connected to MicroStrategyLibrary Server

  • In addition to this, you have to deploy the VitaraCharts plugin locally on your machine. Go to the MicroStrategy Workstation installation folder in your local machine. Navigate to \Code\plugins\ folder and unzip downloaded VitaraCharts.zip file here. For example, in the Windows machine below is the path of the folder where you have to deploy the VitaraCharts plugin. "C:\Program Files\MicroStrategy\Workstation\Code\plugins*
