Drill-down Usability Improvements
Updated
Get contextual insights with just two clicks, enhancing your drilldown journey
In the fast-paced world, the ability to gain meaningful insights quickly is crucial for users. To address this need, we are thrilled to introduce the Standard Drilldown feature in our latest release, designed to empower our users with unparalleled contextual insights in just two clicks for each metric. This innovative feature leverages a set of preconfigured widgets and promises to transform the way you interact with your data.
What are the key highlights for the feature?
Contextual Drilldown
Imagine being able to perform a contextual drill-down and surface the most relevant widgets against a specific metric with just a couple of clicks. The Standard Drilldown feature makes this a reality. It streamlines the process of accessing detailed information related to a metric, reducing the time and effort required to gain valuable insights.
Use Case-Based Groupings
With the introduction of use case-based groupings for drilldown lenses you can now navigate through your data with ease, as drilldown lenses are organized into categories based on their intended use cases. This not only reduces scroll and simplifies navigation but also clarifies the objective of a specific drill-down, ensuring that you find the information you need without any confusion.
Introducing Breadcrumbs
To further enhance user experience, we have introduced breadcrumbs. These breadcrumbs provide you with vital information about the origin of the widget, including the widget's name and the data point it represents. This additional context helps you navigate through your data seamlessly, especially when dealing with similar widgets. Say goodbye to confusion, and hello to clarity!
Customization at Your Fingertips
Your data is unique, and we understand that. That's why we're giving you the power to configure the Standard Drilldown feature to suit your specific needs. With the ability to configure the standard lens yourself, you can map it to different metrics for various use cases. This level of customization ensures that you get the insights you want, the way you want them.
