Linked Widgets Drill-down

Linked widgets let you drill from a parent chart, KPI, pivot, or table into a child widget filtered by the value you clicked.

Open a linked widget

1. Configure linked widgets on the parent card (column → child widget → filter variable).
2. On the dashboard, click a drillable value.
3. The child widget loads inline with a breadcrumb back to the parent.
4. Outer links filter a child tile already on the dashboard. The same column can connect to more than one outer widget; one click filters every connected child. The clicked table row stays highlighted while that value is selected. Hovering a row does not select it. Click that same value again, or clear the filter on a child, to remove the highlight.

Table rows can also expand a linked widget under the row instead of replacing the whole widget.

Open output in a new tab

After a linked widget has loaded, use the open in new tab icon on the drill breadcrumb (same row as the path).

This opens the fullscreen widget page in a new browser tab (/dashboards/…/widget/…) using the drill output already on screen. It does not re-run the linked-widget query, and the dashboard you drilled from stays on its current page.

While drilled, insights and the ⋮ menu sit in a strip above the breadcrumb. Edit / Download / Full Screen stay in that ⋮ menu (Edit targets the current drill widget).

You can also open any dashboard widget via ⋮ → Full Screen — that opens the live widget in a new tab.
