(For example, when a user clicks a part of a visualization, changing other non-gooddata page content?)
I'm currently using the React SDK.

06/05/2024, 9:20 AMHi Kayde, sorry for the delay getting back to you. Regarding drilling, appropriate events are still emitted, but the embedder need to handle them programmatically using eventHandlers prop documented here. There’s also example in the gallery here (it is for drill to dashboard though, however with modification it should work for drill to url as well).
And I’m still checking your initial question with our engineers.

06/11/2024, 5:13 PMOkay, sounds good. I was going based on the api docs saying "most of the event types are currently an alpha-level API that we reserve to change in the following releases," but I guess that is slightly outdated, then. I'm very excited to use those events, now!

06/11/2024, 5:16 PMTo clarify (as I understand it) for future reference:
1. Some drill events (e.g., Drill to URL) do nothing by default when embedded (except in iframes), and must be handled by an eventHandler on the dashboard
2. All Dashboard Events are good to use, and any breaking changes will be announced with sufficient notice & guidance
