Drill down on axis in dashboard without having to enter into the report itself

You can pin live report pages to dashboard if you want this functionality, or use a report instead.

RE: Drill Down in Dashboard

Drill down function doesn't work when using 'pin live' report pages to a dashboard. I would like to vote for this improvement but it's been closed, can you please re-open as this feature would be very welcome. Quite disappointed that there is currently no way that I've found to drill down in dashboards, and can't even vote for this improvement option.

RE: Drill Down in Dashboard

when we pin live page the function drill down is not working. So this is wrong to not plan it :-(

RE: Drill Down in Dashboard

From a user's perspective using dashboards on mobile device specially when a filtered down data is presented on dashboard user only need to see the filtered data for that particular visualization not the whole damn page of visualizations as suggested by the admin. Why the voting of this feature has been locked out?

Apparently, Kim would rather support "Power Bi should cook idea"

RE: Drill Down in Dashboard

Hello,

This functionality is definitely needed in Dashboards as we want to show drill down's and we can't do that so why even creating them.

Now, there is a workaround for this, if you share your report (where drill down is still working) in a SharePoint site this will show the drill down working in the SharePoint, this of course in case your project and organization allows for the "dashboard" to actually be shared in a SharePoint.

Drill down looks awesome in a final user presentation!

Omar Sánchez.

RE: Drill Down in Dashboard

Not having the drill down function in dashboard is same as not having it at all. Please add this function in dashboard also.

RE: Drill Down in Dashboard

I would like to show the dashboard to the MT, but without drill/zoom options it is worthless. Please reconsinder this issue. Thank you in advance!

RE: Drill Down in Dashboard

In my view all the advance functionality in now 'Report' should be in now 'Dashboard' and vice versa. Dashboard to me should be interactive in the live environment allow users to interrogate to produce report to suit their individual needs. For example, one dashboard for many region managers, each manager can then drill/filter down to their own region to produce reports. This way the 'Dashboard' is a reporting tool to control the consistency and quality of the 'Report'. 'Report' to me is a final output from a study/job/project ready for publishing both soft and hard copy to the final audience. Report is a snapshot of that moment in time.

If I put it in the context of car dashboard, it is live showing the speed, fuel tank, time etc..few buttons allow user to customise it (metric or imperial, time and date format,..) Mechanic to run a diagnostic report to check the performance/condition of the car.

RE: Drill Down in Dashboard

I will add to this thread, pin live page does not work, user functionality greatly reduced as a result.
