I was recently made aware that the new feature called 'Key Driver Analysis' released on Aug 27th is set to 'on' automatically on all of our existing visualizations. To turn this off will I have to visit every visualization?

Thinking completed Good news — you don't necessarily have to visit every visualization individually. There are two levels of control available: Metric Level (Recommended for broad disabling) You can turn off KDA at the metric level from the Analytics Catalog. When you disable the Use for Key Driver Analysis setting on a metric: • All dashboard visualizations using that metric will no longer offer KDA by default. • Visualizations created by the AI Assistant won't offer KDA for that metric. • The AI Assistant won't run KDA for that metric from conversational requests. This is the most efficient approach if you want to disable KDA across many visualizations at once — just disable it on the relevant metrics rather than visiting each visualization. [KDA Controls] Visualization Level (For granular control) If you need finer control, you can also disable KDA for individual visualizations in Analytical Designer, or exclude specific metrics from KDA within a visualization. Note that visualization-level settings can override the metric-level default. [KDA Controls] Summary So the most practical path is to disable KDA on the metrics themselves via the Analytics Catalog, which will propagate the change across all affected visualizations without needing to touch each one individually. 👍 0 button 👎 0 button ℹ️ Tip: Mention @kapa.ai in the thread for follow-ups. 👀 Our Support team monitors all messages and will jump in if needed., with interactive elements

When this feature became generally available I am confused why it was defaulted to be 'on' for existing visualizations instead of defaulted to 'off'. Our compliance process requires dashboard review by medical committees after which there can be no changes unless approved first. Now this is change was added by Gooddata without our knowledge. We are discussing how to deal with such a broad change to all visualizations.

Hi Greg, thank you for explaining, and I understand how this affects your approval process. To clarify what changed: KDA did not modify your visualizations, their definitions, or the data they display. It adds an optional analysis action to the menu of supported date-based visualizations. It’s also only shown to users with the AI Assistant permission, so users without that permission won’t see it. If you’d like to turn it off, you don’t need to edit every visualization. You can disable it per metric in the Analytics Catalog (Use for Key driver analysis), which removes it from every visualization using that metric: Docs

Thank you for clarifying.
