Dashboards support Drill Through data discovery, where a clicking on an element of the visual in a dashboard opens a target visual or dashboard. You can configure Drill Through to pass parameters to the target.
To enable Drill Through data discovery, follow these steps:
With the dashboard in Edit mode, click on an element of a visual, and select the Link to Visual option from the menu.
When Arcadia Enterprise opens the Pick an app window modal, follow these steps:
Here, we are linking to the dashboard <<country>> Detail. Note that the name of the dashboard is parameterized.
Check that the link configuration leads to the correct visual or dashboard. Simply click on an element in the dashboard, and note the Linked to ID in the drop-down menu. Also, note that you can select Edit Link to Visual in this interface.
In View mode, click on an element of a graph. Here, we are clicking on a bubble that represents Turkey.
When Arcadia Enterprise navigates to the target dashboard or visual, notice that it preserves the parameters of the click, and builds the target visuals accordingly.
Note
The parameters used in Drill Through data discovery are:
Parameters passed to the source visual from URL
Parameters that correspond to the clicked element
When navigating within an application, application scope parameters
The parameters that are not passed include these:
