In response to a question asked by Bheemanagouda about the video
Using Impact UI data to Integrate with Topology Widget in JazzSM Dashboard
How to use the webservices policy from Netcool Impact to JAZZSM Dashboard,
that would be great help from your side if i got that one.
This answer came from Yasser with Netcool Impact development.
To get webservice policy into JazzSM Dash
1) Create the WebService policy as normal.
2) Create an Array Of Impact Object variable in the policy and feed it with the data you want, ie
Weather = {};
obj =NewObject();
obj.city = "MyCity";
obj2=NewObject();
obj2.city="MySecondCity";
Weather = {obj,obj2};
3) Create an output parameter for Weather to expose in the DASH
4) Create a DASH page for that output parameter
And you should be able to view the weather info in the table widget.

In my policy above, I have only one field which is city in the objects.
You will need to create an entry for every field in the objects.
