Adding a Chart Filter

Our new Dashboard feature is available upon request for the initial launch phase. Please contact your Customer Success Manager if you'd like to schedule implementation with our Services team.

Overview

The Filters feature allows users to add internal Filters to the Chart's data values. These Filters are part of the Chart and will be retained in all instances of the Chart across the entire application. Furthermore, they are not visible outside the edit mode and can’t be used for interaction.
