Drill Down Journey
What is Drill Down Journey?
The Drill Down Journey feature enhances the existing Drill Down functionality by allowing users to configure and predefine the drill-down experience. You can specify the behavior, structure, and visualization of each drill-down step, ensuring a more tailored and controlled data exploration process.
The defined multi-step drill-down paths in your widgets can be later retraced from the Dashboards. Drill Down Journeys are available on the widgets which are saved and pinned to a dashboard.
With the Drill Down journey, you can:
-
Define specific drill-down steps, including the columns to drill into, time buckets (for time-based data), and the desired chart types at each step.
-
Create complex drill-down paths with an unlimited number of steps, enabling deep data exploration and analysis.
How to configure Drill Down Journey?
-
Define the Journey: While creating a widget from the visualizer, click the Drill Down Journey icon on the right side panel and enable the Drill Down Journey to define the steps, specifying the columns, time buckets, and chart types for each step.
-
Pin to Dashboard: Save the changes and pin the chart to a dashboard.
-
Explore the Data: On the dashboard, initiate the Drill Down Journey and retrace the defined steps to explore your data in detail.
When to use Drill-Down Journey?
-
Ideal for structured, hierarchical exploration Use when you want users to follow a predefined path — for example: Country → State → City → Region. This ensures consistency in how data is explored across users.
-
Simple to configure and manage Drill-down journeys can be easily set up through the visual interface without writing code or creating separate widgets.
-
Accessible to non-technical users Designed with simplicity in mind, it allows business users to configure and use drill paths without requiring advanced technical skills.
