Opening a Visualizer Report from a Dashboard

A Dashboard filter user can open and edit a Visualizer report to perform ad-hoc analysis.

You can open a report from a dashboard directly into Visualizer, edit it, save it, and return to the dashboard editor. Use the fan menu of the report dashlet.

To open a Visualizer report from an original HTML5 dashboard:

Prerequisite: Check the Enable Visualizer box in the original Dashboard Dashlet Properties to give users the ability to open the report in Visualizer.

Open the Dashboards module. If you are not using the HTML5 version of Dashboards, right-click the dashboard page containing the Visualizer report and select View as HTML5.

From an HTML5 dashboard, click the

icon in the dashlet header. The report opens in Visualizer.If you do not see this icon, the ability to open the report in Visualizer has not been enabled for this dashlet.

Make any changes you want to further explore your data, such as changing how the data is filtered or adding additional metrics.

When you are finished, click the close icon in the upper right corner to close Visualizer and return to the HTML5 dashboard.
