  • In this Document you will learn to Create a dashboard and add a Pivot chart widget and Table widget. You will learn create embed link and how to connect embed link with one dashboard to another dashboard and filter detail dashboard with global filter parameters.

  • [note: to apply global filters, parameterized dataset should be used in detail dashboard]

  • Use case: You have one summary level of Dashboard which contains summarized data. You don’t want to show detail data in this dashboard. Also, you have another dashboard which contains Detail level of data which is called Detailed dashboard. Now if you want to see detail data of summarized data and by clicking on summarized data it should redirect to the detail dashboard you have created with filter value applied on summary dashboard.

  • In this document we will see how to meet this use case. So, we have one summary level of dashboard and one detail level of dashboard. Summary level dashboard contains pivot table showing grouped data and detail dashboard have table widget showing detailed data of that column chart. Detail dashboard table has 2 parameters 1. country and 2. Productline.

  • In this scenario we will use pivot table. When you click on any numbers it will redirect us to detail data dashboard. Here in pivot table, we have to pass rows and column values of data we are clicking.
