Einstein Analytics (EA) - Bulk Actions using Lightning Out

In this repo you will find the following:

• Lightning App (EALtngOutApp.app)
• Lightning Component (EALtngOut.cmp)
• Visualforce page (EALtngQuickActionTest.page)

EA bulk Action happens in this sequence:

1. User clicks the custom action - Bulk Action
2. EA passes the query parameter to the Visualforce page (in our case: EALtngQuickActionTest.page) wired in this custom action (bulk action)
3. EALtngQuickActionTest.page gets the SAQL in url parameter named query
   • EALtngQuickActionTest.page make POST call to /services/data/v45.0/wave/query with query we got
   • EALtngQuickActionTest.page uses Lightning Out feature to createComponent to create the component EALtngOut.cmp via EALtngOutApp.app.
   • And in this process, the Lighting component gets SAQL query as well as the result of that SAQL query
   • EALtngOut.cmp can now create records or do any bulk actions based on the results of the SAQL query returned by the EA
