Using the Interactive Pivot Table
If you have a Pivot Table that you'd like to switch to an Interactive Pivot Table, select the "View all charts" link at the top of the Chart Builder configuration panel. In the visualization gallery, look for the Interactive Pivot Table chart type.
To create a new Interactive Pivot Table, select your dataset and then choose the Interactive Pivot Table chart type in the visualization gallery.
Configuring Your Interactive Pivot Table
Add fields from your dataset into the Dimensions and Metrics fields of the Chart Builder. Any columns and metrics added here will be available in your Interactive Pivot Table and can be enabled or disabled within the Interactive Pivot Table later.
Set Your Row Groups, Columns, and Values
By default, some rows and columns will be set based on the dimensions added in the Data panel. To make changes, expand the "Columns" panel on the left or drag items between the row groups and column labels sections at the top of the Interactive Pivot Table.
Customize the Layout
- Resize columns by dragging their edges
- Adjust column sorting and filtering
- Expand or collapse row groups to focus on specific levels of detail
- Pin columns or drag to reorder
- Set your desired page size
These settings will be saved when you save the chart and view it on a dashboard.
