Hi all - we are just getting started with GoodData. I've had a request to allow view-only users (dashboardOnlyRole in an embedded report) to change the 'stack by' attribute (similar to the way they can change the filters). I've checked the docs and can't see a way to do this. Does anyone know if there is a solution (or workaround)? Thanks!

Hi Mal, It is currently not possible for users with this role to modify stack by insights in KPI dashboards the way they would set a filter, however users with Explorer role can access Analytical Designer, this would allow them to interact with the chart freely.

Thanks Moises

Hello Mal, let me chime in. We have recently released Dashboard Plugins that might be useful for you. A Dashboard Plugin is basically a custom JavaScript code that can be applied to vanilla KPI Dashboards to enhance their out-of-the-box functionality. Here's a working example of a dashboard plugin that targets all the insights with 2+ metrics and renders a metric switcher next to them. See the screenshot:

Thanks Jiri - that's great to know. I hadn't seen these dashboard plugins before. We have JavaScript developers, so this is definitely something that we will investigate.

Glad to hear that @Mal Sharkey! Please know that I won't be available for the next 2 weeks as I'm taking some time off, but there will be other colleagues who will be happy to step in 😉 Let us know it goes!
