Embed External Content into Explore Dashboard



Posted Dec 07, 2021

Feature Request Summary: 

I think it would be helpful to allow content from external sites to be embedded within an Explore Dashboard.

Description/Use Cases: 

Our team uses an Explore dashboard to track our progress on various projects planned for the fiscal year. We present this information to our executive team on a periodic basis, and Explore is useful for showing our progress up-to-date without having to recreate our charts and reports each time we present. The dashboard also allows our executive team the ability to see our progress between presentations. Our dashboard is essentially a one-stop shop to view any information on our projects.

In addition to queries related to our projects from Explore, we also like to include Gantt charts, which we manage through an external site (monday.com). This site allows charts to be embedded on other sites using iframe. However, there is not a way to embed the code into our Explore dashboard.

Business impact of limitation or missing feature:

As a workaround, we take screenshots of our Gantt charts and add them to our dashboard as images. We have to do this each time we present to our executive team, and in-between the Gantt charts may not be up-to-date. Admittedly, it's not a ton of added work, but it is a bit of a bummer to have a page full of dynamic up-to-date reports coupled with static out-of-date screenshots.

This is a very specific example, but I would not be surprised if others have use cases where it would be beneficial to embed external content. Thank you for your consideration!
