Turning off dashboard and query interactivity

By default, data interactivity is enabled on dashboards. Viewers can use any interaction options to select and view data in customized ways (see Adding dashboard interactions). You can turn off data interactivity in the dashboard, or in Query Builder.

This article covers the following topics:

• Data interactivity options
• Turning off data interactivity

Data interactivity options

Below are the available interactivity options you can turn on and off.

• Filter others: Viewers can select a value from a chart to be a filter for all charts, including itself. For example, if a user selects the value Support on a chart, and adds it as a filter, all charts will show results for only Support.
• Filter others only: All charts are filtered, except the chart where the value was selected.
• Decompose: Viewers can slice results by an additional attribute on either Rows or Columns. Users can select either all or a portion of the graph to decompose.
• Drillthrough: Viewers can view and export a table of attributes and metrics that relate to a chosen value.
• Focus: Enables viewers to zoom in on a range within a chart.
• Fullscreen: Viewers can view the dashboard in full screen mode.
• Widget slides: Viewers can view the widgets as slides in a presentation. This can be useful for viewing widgets on smaller screens.
