Hey, I couldn’t find this info here. Maybe it’s buried in another post somewhere. Ignore if you’ve already done this. 
Here’s how I added a Transview dataview to a new Kinetic app and initialized it on a quick and dirty query on Company and dashboard setup.
YMMV.

Add the Transview dataview:
Look for event “window_events”:
If you don’t find this event already in the app, create a new event with this trigger.
Add a “row-add” component from the toolbox:
Set the dataview in Parameters:
(Leave the Values field empty.)
Add a “row-update” component:
In Parameters, add a parameter and select colums. . . and add a column.
Add the binding, and in the Value JSON editor enter “”.
That should have the Transview populated with a single row and the Transview.Company field initialized with an empty string.
