Advanced visualization

Hi,

I am trying to get Drill Through data by Right click on visuals, but some external visualization does not support Drill Through option.

 

It is showing filtered data but upto basic level of 'Sunburst graph'. 

 

When I drilled through '1' data comes correct. But when I drilled through 'Male' which is second hierarchy, data comes incorrect.

 

I am attaching screenshot of visual and drilled data sample. Could anyone can help me with the Drill Through option?ChartChartI selected Drill Through on MaleI selected Drill Through on MaleBut I got all the data without filtrationBut I got all the data without filtration

Hi @Anonymous ,

You have changed the hierarchy of fields. This is not the solution. 

 

We can conclude that Sunburst chart only supports base level Drilled Through(only 1 level). If we use drill through on hierarchical basis it fails.

Hi  @mdandhare ,

According to the research, this visual drill object is drilled according to the field placed on the Category. If you put [Risk_level(5-max)] on it, the drill will only affect the [Risk_level(5-max)] to drill down.

I put [Pat_Gender] in Category, and the visual will press [Pat_Gender] to drill through.

Hi,

I have added the required fields in the 'Add Drill Through Field' eventhough it not filtering to 2nd or 3rd Hirarchy. Is there are something I am missing out?

@mdandhare ,
Can you share a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.
