Hi,

 

I don't think that it's a great idea because most of custom visuals work inside iframe so, it will be challenging.

You can try to use some services to send and store the comments, I suppose, or store your comments inside visual settings that is possible (but there may be difficulties with sharing among users).

Also, if you would like to certify your visual in the future, there is a high chance that you will face with issues.

Appreciate the reply.

 

1)

You had said "You can try to use some services to send and store the comments" -- Which services are you referring to?

 

2) 

You also said "You can store your comments inside visual settings that is possible" -- What are you referencing here? 

 

Further, aside from the iframe issue, from an end-users perspective how come asking for review that the viz makes can later use to rate and score the visualization not be a good idea? This is pretty typical for most anything from products to restaurants. Appreciate the response!
