Adding Slicers to Dashboards

Hi,

I'd like to suggest a product improvement. My users at my new company are mostly used to excel/powerbi/standard queries, and they keep asking me to duplicate dynamic dashboard functionality inside of smartsheet. This is mildly achievable with the legend, but real breakdowns I generally have to build many subsets of dashboards to achieve.

My request/recommendation is to add a report filter link as a dashboard widget for dropdown fields. This would allow for far more dynamic sorting and reviewing of data, and much less development work to build breakdowns that may only ever be used a couple of times, and make smartsheet more competitive on building dynamic dashboards.

    In reviewing some of my requests, I am surprised that there is so little engagement on this request as it comes up so often in conversation when building dashboards for clients. When it comes to data visualization and the use of dashboards, so many people ask for the ability to use Slicers and dropdowns to view information that is on the dashboard. Especially when it comes to monthly progress reports, financial performance or even just comparing updates between months

    I wish there was a way for us to add more tags to a post

    One of my biggest “wishes” for Smartsheet. Sorry I haven’t stopped to read any yet. I really need a way to view my dashboard by the month!
