Using breakdowns on dashboards

Dashboards can have breakdowns added to them. Users can select a breakdown element to filter data in Performance Analytics widgets that have been added to the dashboard.

For example, the breakdown Category enables users to select a category from the list. After this selection the entire dashboard shows the data of indicators for that specific category, provided Follow element is selected for the widget that is used to render the chart or list in the widget configuration.
