# 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":[
