Drill Through Data Discovery

lets you navigate from one dashboard to another, with parameter passing.

Dashboards support drill through data discovery, where clicking on an element of the visual in a dashboard opens a target dashboard. You can configure Drill Through to pass parameters to the target visual.

To enable Drill Through data discovery, follow these steps:

1. With the dashboard in Edit mode, click on an element of a visual, and select the Navigate to Dashboard option from the menu.

   

2. Arcadia Enterprise opens the Pick a dashboard window modal.

3. In the modal, you can choose to specify the option Pass current parameters when navigating.

   

4. Click the Open Target Dashboard in menu, and select one of the options:

   • Current Tab
   • New Tab
   • New Window

   

5. You can use the Search bar to find the desired target dashboard, and then select it by clicking one of the results.

   

6. Alternatively, you can expand one of the datasets, and select one of its dashboards.

   

7. To check that the configuration leads to the correct dashboard, with correct options, click on an element in the dashboard, and note the Navigate to ID:145 in the drop-down menu.

   

8. Click Save to preserve the changes to the dashboard.
9. Click View to change to View mode.

10. In View mode, click on an element of a graph. Here, we are clicking on a bubble that represents Ethiopia.

    

11. When Arcadia Enterprise navigates to the target dashboard, notice that it preserves the parameters of the click, and builds the target visuals accordingly.
