Is it possible to filter all other charts on the dashboard based on selection of a value from one chart?

Hey @rubab, This is not currently available in Looker. It’s definitely something we are going to do and we are actively scoping it. There is a workaround that may get you part of the way there. You can add an HTML link to the dimension such that a user can select a link and inject the dimension value into the dashboard filter. In your example, this would filter all 4 charts by the selected dimension value. You can read about how to do this here.

There are clearly limitations to this workaround. We are working on the full solution and will keep you posted.

Hi @Travmackey, this is still being scoped as a possible feature addition. In the meantime, you might be interested in dashboards filters that update multiple tiles. See the documentation here. Instead of clicking, say, a bar from one tile chart and have the other tile charts filter accordingly, you can set a filter that applies to all tiles simultaneously.

Is there any update on this? Will this be part of the new dashboard experience that’s in Beta right now?

As of May last year, this feature was being designed. Perhaps we’ll see it sooner than later 🙂

This feature is in a closed beta test right now— If you reach out to your Looker account team, they can hook you up!

Yes, it’s called Cross Filtering, you can enable it by clicking on Filters while in editing mode of a Dashboard:

Then, when you click on, for example, part of a pie chart, all the other tiles get its context:
