Dashboards in the Reporting Studio present data using different visualizations and report tables. You can navigate to dashboards from several spaces and you'll find the following features on a dashboard.
Navigation Breadcrumb
Where am I? Located at the top left, the navigation breadcrumb shows the enclosing folder for the dashboard. Selecting it takes you to the enclosing folder.
Favorite Indicator
Found at the top left, the heart-shaped favorite indicator shows if the dashboard is marked as a favorite. You can mark or unmark the dashboard as a favorite by selecting the heart (solid blue fill indicates a favorite).
Add to Boards icon
Located to the right of the favorite indicator. Select it to open the Add to Boards window. Here, you can add the dashboard to one or more boards. Boards are accessed via the left navigation panel.
Dashboard Filters
Filters appear below the dashboard title and can be expanded or collapsed using the filters icon at the top of the dashboard.
Dashboard Last Updated Indicator
This appears at the top right of the dashboard and shows when the data on the dashboard was last queried or "refreshed" from the database.
Reload Data Icon
Selecting this circular arrow icon updates the data on the dashboard. It becomes an Update option when filters have been changed, added, or removed.
Filters Icon
A three-line icon located to the right of reload data. It allows you to switch the state of the filter bar between collapsed and expanded. When the filter bar is collapsed, an indicator appears next to the filters icon that shows the number of filters applied to the dashboard.

Add to a board
Here, you can add the dashboard to one or more boards. Boards are accessed via the left navigation panel.
Get embed URL
An embed URL allows you to preview the dashboard in a new browser window. You can also use this URL to embed the dashboard in an iframe.
To generate and copy a private embed URL for your dashboard:
-
Select Get embed URL from the three-dot menu.
- You’ll see the Get embed URL window. The Embed URL field shows the full private embed URL.
- Choose whether to Include current params in URL, such as filter values, to the dashboard embed URL. If enabled, current parameters are applied when the embedded dashboard is viewed.
- Select Copy Link to copy the full embed URL to your clipboard.
If you share an embedded dashboard with others, they must be able to log in to the Reporting Studio in order to view it.
Get link
Selecting Get link reveals a pop-up that contains a link to the dashboard, which can be copied and shared.
By default, the Include current filter values in URL switch is enabled, and the link contains the URL parameters for the filter values as they currently appear on the dashboard.
If you disable the Include current filter values in URL switch, the dashboard displays default filter values and no cross-filters are applied.
To view the dashboard, anyone with the link must have access to the Reporting Studio.
Reset filters
Select this option to clear all applied filters and return to the default.
