Remarks

You can apply SupportedDataTypesAttribute to a data section when you create metadata for a custom dashboard item. The attribute identifies the data field type that a user can add to a section.

To specify the data field type, pass one of the DataSourceFieldType enumeration values as an argument to the SupportedDataTypesAttribute constructor.

The following code snippet specifies that data items in the Value section should have the integer type. As a result, you can add only an integer data field in this section.

    public Measure Value
    {
        get { return GetPropertyValue<Measure>(); }
