Dashboards · Explore

A dashboard readers can dig into, not a picture of one.

Every Mammoth board is live. Readers click to filter, drill down through the data, open the rows behind a number, and ask questions in their own words, all within what they're allowed to see.

Live example

Click anything

Click a region, a channel or a slice and the whole board filters to it. Use the filters beside the board to combine them.

Sample data for a fictional coffee chain. Signed-in readers can also open the rows behind any number; this public example shows filtering and drill only.

Open the full board

Filter and drill

Every chart is a control

Click to filter

Click a bar, slice or point to filter the whole board to it.

Filter controls

Boards carry filters as multi-select, chips, search or a single dropdown, with defaults the author can set.

Drill one level down

Click a mark and the chart redraws one level deeper, through a hierarchy found in your data or from year down to day.

Open a chart larger

Open any chart into a bigger view that is redrawn at that size, with full labels, and stays live.

Down to the detail

From a total to the records behind it

When a number surprises someone, the next question is always which rows it came from.

See the rows behind a number

Click a chart mark or KPI card to see the records behind it, with their count and total.

An Explore page for readers

Authors can add a page where readers browse column summaries, drill down and view the data grid, read-only.

Glossary, who to ask, and freshness

A board can carry a glossary, a who-to-ask note and an 'Updated' stamp showing when the data last changed.

Opens where the reader left off

A published board opens on the page in the link, else the page that reader last viewed.

Ask in plain words

Readers can ask what the board doesn't show

Answers are computed from the same data as the board, within each reader's access, and say plainly when the data can't answer.

Readers can ask questions

People you share a board with can ask questions in plain words and get computed answers with charts, within their own access.

Team and above

Shareable Q&A threads

A Q&A thread is private until shared; shared threads can be replayed, commented on and copied, answers can be pinned to the board, and each answer exports to CSV.

Last 12 months means your data's last 12

Phrases like 'last quarter' are anchored on the last date in your data and the window is spelled out.

Limits

Limits worth knowing

Better to know before you choose than after.

Drill paths come from your data
The hierarchy is found in your data, not defined by you, and drilling stays within one table. The author can turn drilling off for a chart.
Rows: up to 500, for signed-in readers
Up to 500 rows, for signed-in readers, within their row-level access. Contact-like columns are left out. The author can turn it off for a chart.
The Explore page is for signed-in readers
Not shown on public links to logged-out readers, and not included in PDF or Power BI/Tableau exports. Hiding columns from it is not a security control.
Reader questions need Team or above
On by default, the author can turn it off, and it is always off on public links. Team plan and above, with a monthly question allowance by plan.
The grouped Other slice can't be clicked
The grouped 'Other' slice can't be clicked.
Who-to-ask notes are visible to everyone
Who-to-ask is free text and is shown to every reader, including row-restricted ones.

Questions people ask first

Can readers drill down?
Yes. A reader clicks a mark and the chart redraws one level deeper: a region into its stores, a year into quarters, months and days. The hierarchy is found in your data, and the detail always adds up to the number you started from.
Can readers see the underlying data?
Signed-in readers can click any number or card to see up to 500 rows behind it, with their count and total, within their own row-level access. Authors can also add a read-only Explore page with the data grid.
Can readers ask their own questions?
On Team, Pro and Enterprise, people you share a board with can ask questions in plain words and get computed answers and charts. It is always off on public links.
Does filtering work on a public or embedded board?
Yes. Click-to-filter, filter controls and drill-down work for every reader, including on public links and embeds. Seeing the rows behind a number needs a signed-in reader.
