Saving multiple pages of dashboard at a time

[RachelTobin]

Hello,

I am needing to save (as PDF) varying lengths of a dashboard based on a reference # selected. For example, one reference number might display 2 pages (8.5x11 paper), another could display 30. The “page #” is also a filter I can use – so when the dashboard is first opened, it’ll default to page #1, but they could view pages 2-n if desired. When they save this as a PDF, I essentially need to it show save all the pages at once, without the filters showing.

Essentially, I want the dashboard to look like this:

But when “Save All Pages” is pressed, I want the script to save only the page content of page 1, page 2, page 3, (pages 1-n) as a single file. Is that possible?

Hi Rachel,

issues when using the menu layer in the dashboard

Hi, I have several issues when using the menu layer in a dashboard. If I don’t click on “View” (it doesn’t work when doing only a sandbox view) before moving a filter connected to a parameter from the main layer to the menu layer, the filter is showing up with no values. If I modify whatever in the graph (labels or whatever else), same issue, even if it was working previously. Each time I have to end the design process by building the filters in the main layer, click on “View” , then edit ag…

I hope that helps,

Hi Rachel,

Another way to achieve what you’re trying is to include paged versions of your report on your dashboard but link the export button to a report (which exports the non paged report instead) as well as your filters.

So this way you will have the filters as well as paged report on your dashboard and the exported report version would just be the content.
