Dashboards & Visualizations

How to dynamically update table based on selected pie chart slice?

DBrenman
Engager

I have a dashboard with 1) a pie chart the shows clear groupings of my data and 2) a table that shows all of the original data. I would like to enable a user to click on a single pie slice, and have only the corresponding data show up in the table.

Is this possible? If so what type of callback would I be looking at?

Thank you!

It's definitely possible as long as both visualization are derived from same base search. IMO, You would need to setup Contextual drilldown, See below link for more details on that OR share your current dashboard XML.

In case it's helpful, we have some updated drilldown topics in our 6.6.x docs. The contextual drilldown topic has some examples of triggering content changes that you might find useful:
