Making Content Appear Conditionally on Dashboard Pages

You can make an entire section of a dashboard and its content appear conditionally, based on the Boolean value that is returned by an analysis. Similarly, you can make action links appear conditionally.

Before you begin. To edit a dashboard, your user role must have the Access V3 Analytics privilege. To edit dashboards other than your own personal dashboard (My Dashboard), your user role must also have the Manage Dashboards privilege. In addition, to edit a custom dashboard that is stored under /Shared Folders/Migrated Company Wide Shared Folder, your user role must have the Access Migrated Company Wide Shared Folder privilege.

To make a section appear conditionally on a dashboard page

1. Open the dashboard in the dashboard builder.

   For information about opening a dashboard in the dashboard builder, see Editing Dashboards.

2. Click the Properties icon for the section and select Condition.
3. In the Section Condition dialog box, create a new condition or select a saved condition from the catalog.
4. Click OK.

To make an action link appear conditionally on a dashboard page

1. Open the dashboard in the dashboard builder.
2. If the action link is not already added to the layout, then add it.
3. Click the Properties icon for the action link object.
4. In the Action Link Properties dialog box:
   1. Select the Conditionally radio button.
   2. In the Condition field, create a new condition or select a saved condition from the catalog.
   3. Click OK.

TIP: If you create a new condition for a section or action link, then you can save the condition to the catalog by clicking the More icon next to the Condition field.
