    Hey Anonymous ,

     

    as far as I know you cannot pin directly to a dashboard from another workspace.

    You can duplicate your reports and connect them to the data set in the different workspaces. Then publish that reports to your "special workspace".

    From the reports in that workspace you can create a dashboard. The different visuals can be based on the data sets in different workspaces, but the reports have to exist in the workspace of the dashboard.

     

    If you need any help please let me know.
    If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍
     
    Best regards

I don't like these proposed solutions because now you have multiple copies of the same report published across multiple workspaces. I GAUR-AN-TEE you will fix the report in one location some day, and not bother to fix it in the other locations. Not good. 

What I think I'll try is to create an image of the visual, and then make that a link to the other report in the other workspace. If the clicker has permissions to that target, then it should work, and if not, they are likely to get the appropriate message/page. The trouble with this is that the image needs to be consistent, or also updated. But at least you will only be dealing with one report. 

Thoughts?
