Add a simple visual that will open another report or dashboard in the workspace, with a "back" button on the secondary report or dashboard. This will allow assignable navigation within the workspace and provide a rudimentary drill through capability. It should also allow a text descriptor for the link.

RE: Better navigation across reports / dashboards

How many votes needed before we get a button to be able to navigate from a report back to the dashboard in the same window?

intuitive navigation is critical to adoption. No one perusing data likes a dead end. If they link to something, they also need to get back. In this case, linking off to a report from a dashboard is simple (Success!), but lacks a simple way back to the dashboard.

There needs to be a method to navigate back to a Main Dashboard from any report

RE: Better navigation across reports / dashboards

You can create tiles and put custom links to easily navigate between dashboards, but once user enters the report there is no one click back to main dashboard.

RE: Better navigation across reports / dashboards

This would be extremely useful for dashboards with many pages

RE: Better navigation across reports / dashboards

We would like to add links to the "pages" of the report according to other market tools. Example: The main page as a portal with several "Buttons" that will be directed to the pages of the report, inside that we can have a "Back" button for the main page.

RE: Better navigation across reports / dashboards

We would like to be able to link from one report object to another, ideally passing any relevant parameters across between the pages. Given the pages are of a limited size it would increase a user's ability to see the same set of data
