Filter Between Views

Filtering between views links dashboard views so that selecting data in one view automatically applies filters to other connected views. This allows you to explore relationships between datasets, keep related visualizations in sync, and refine results across multiple components instantly. It’s particularly useful when working with dashboards that present data from a shared context, where selections in one chart, table, or map should drive updates in others.

Using this feature reduces repetitive filtering actions, speeds up interactive analysis, and provides a consistent view of filtered data across different visualizations.

When to use​

  • Enabling cross-view analysis: Link filters between dashboard views to easily compare related data points or trends.
  • Quickly refining dashboards: Update all linked views instantly by applying or removing a filter with a single click.
