Is anyone else having the experience of the chart link breaking after adding it to a dashboard? I was able to create a chart and add it to my dashboard, but when I return to the dashboard the link is broken.

1. Source Sheet or Report Access Changed
If:
- The chart is pulling from a report or sheet that had permissions changed or was deleted/moved,
- Or your access to that sheet/report was modified,
➡️ Then the chart widget can lose connection and appear as a broken link.
2. Sheet or Report Was Renamed or Moved
Even though Smartsheet should maintain links internally, moving a report/sheet to another workspace or folder can sometimes break the linkage in widgets.
3. Dashboard Saved While Source Was Still Loading
Sometimes, if you add the chart widget while the source report or sheet is still loading or hasn't fully rendered, it may save the widget with a broken or empty reference.
4. Report Filters Changed or Data Removed
If your chart is powered by a report and the data in the report no longer meets the filter criteria (e.g., empty dataset), the chart might disappear or show as broken.

Love this feature.

@Elizabeth Matson will this functionality scale with Control Center templates as well?
-
@Chris Mondeau Currently charts generated with analyze data do not scale with Control Center. If you use a blueprint with an analyze data chart, the chart will show up as a blank space on the provisioned dashboard. This functionality is on our roadmap for the future, though, as we continue to enhance analyze data.
