Drill through questions: different tabs on same dashboard; different dashboards using different modules

  • 1.  Drill through questions: different tabs on same dashboard; different dashboards using different modules

    Posted Mon February 27, 2023 04:09 PM

    Hi, team!

    I have a dashboard that has two different modules, that consume data from the same database.

    I would like to create a new tab that links to a different tab, connecting to data on a different module.

    Is this possible?

    Thanks!

    Hi Sergio, I'm not sure if I got you right. In dashboards you can define a data source/module per visualization (independed of the dashboard tab). For a visualization you may set up a drill-through to another dashboard or a report. Hope it helps.
