(v24) Subscribe a Visual to a Link

Subscribe a Visual to a Link

This applies to: Visual Data Discovery

You can select cross-source and same-source links to which a visual on a dashboard should subscribe (use). When a visual subscribes to a link, the visual will be filtered by the link field if another visual creates a cross-visual filter for the same field.

Subscribe to a same-source or cross-source link for a dashboard visual

1. Select the link icon on the dashboard icon bar. The Dashboard Interactions dialog appears. In the following image, no cross-source links are defined for the dashboard.

   

2. Select the Cross-Visual Filtering tab.

   

3. Select a visual in the Visuals list on the left of the tab. The right side of the tab show the link filters to which the visual can subscribe in the Subscribed filters table.

   

4. If you want the visual to subscribe to all of the links available, slide the Enable All switch on (to the right).

   If you just want the visual to subscribe to an individual link, locate the link name in the table of Subscribed filters, and slide its corresponding switch in the Enabled on. Repeat this for every individual link to which you want the visual subscribed.

5. Optionally, repeat Steps 3 and 4 for other visuals listed on the left of the tab.

6. When you have finished identifying the subscribed links, select Apply.

7. Save the dashboard to save the cross-visual link specifications.
