Drill-across links

A drill-across link connects a button, chart, image, KPI, or tabular report to another dashboard. You can click on the item you designated and another dashboard opens. For example, from a high-level overview dashboard you could link to another dashboard that provides more context and detail.

Here are some considerations for using drill-across links:

  • Drill-across links cannot go across spaces.
  • Drill-across links can pass filters or conditional display configurations as parameters.
  • When passing filters, make sure that the filter value being passed is compatible between the source and the target. Only one value can be passed from a filter. If the target requires two values, such as for a BETWEEN operator, the filter on the target will not be filled correctly.
  • Chart reports can also pass column values.
  • Text areas and embedded websites cannot use a drill-across link.
  • A drill-across at the dashlet level overrides a drill-down defined at the report level.
    Note: You can toggle the drill-across functionality On and Off without losing the settings.
