# Adding a Viz to a Vizpad

To add a Viz (chart widget) to a Vizpad,

```javascript
telliusFrame.postMessage({
    "actionType": "addToVizpad",
    "vizpadAndTabs": [{ //optional field 
        "vizpadId": "ID_of_Vizpad",
        "tabIds":: ["t1", "t2"], //optional field
    },
    {          
        "vizpadId": "ID_of_Vizpad",
    }], //optional field
    "newVizpadTitle": "abc", //optional field
    "viz": viz object that has to be saved in the vizpad
}, "*");
```

{% hint style="info" %}
To add the Viz in a new Vizpad, the field **vizpadAndTabs** need not be specified.
{% endhint %}

* **vizpadAndTabs** - It is an optional field. It is an array that consists of objects **vizpadID** and **tabIDs**.
* **vizpadID** - ID of the vizpad where the viz has to be added.
* **tabID** - It is an optional field, and it's an array of strings that accepts tabIDs of the Vizpad. If not specified, the Viz will be added to the first tab of the Vizpad.
* **newVizpadTitle** - It is an optional field, and it mentions the title of the new Vizpad to be created.

{% hint style="danger" %}
**newVizpadTitle** and **vizpadAndTabs** should not be used together.
{% endhint %}

**Viz** follows the same structure as the response from the web socket call.&#x20;

### **Sample code using newVizpadTitle**

#### **Request**

In the following code, **vizpadID** is not specified, but **newVizpadTitle** is included. So, a new Vizpad is created, and the Viz is added to the newly created Vizpad.

```javascript
telliusFrame.postMessage({

#### **Response**

Once successfully saved, the following response will be sent to the embedding app from Tellius. This structure is followed when **vizpadID** is not used.

Here, **tabID** and **vizpadID** refer to the tab and the Vizpad in which the Viz is added.

```javascript
{
   "actionType":"ADD_TO_VIZPAD",
   "originalVizId":"fe149768-68f4-4306-a032-65bd8c536c72",
   "vizpadAndTabs":[
      {
         "vizpadId":"ID_of_Vizpad",
         "tabs":[

               "vizId":"ID_of_Viz",

               "tabId":"ID_of_tab",
               "message":"Viz successfully saved to vizpad",

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.tellius.com/tellius-5.4/embedding-tellius/embedding-url/embedding-vizpads/adding-a-viz-to-a-vizpad.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
