Locking down dashboards on a live connected Dashboard
Hi John_R,
In fact, you can add many new tiles from a report. Each of these tiles, when clicked, is a link back into the report by default. You can set the custom link for the dashboard visual to the dashboard. See: Add a hyperlink to a dashboard tile.

I appreciate you getting back to me on this issue.
While that's definately something to consider, doesn't that introduce another potential security risk? If you have an embedded URL, couldn't someone just copy the link out, email the link to a competitor, and that data all of the sudden becomes public? That's definately something we are trying to avoid.
Going back to the original issue, Is there a way to remove the filters completely from a shared and published dashboard? This way we can share the dashboard, and the customer could interact with the dashboard, but not change any of the filters, limiting data exposure.
Please let me know your thoughts.

Hi John_R,
Currently, it's not supported to hide the Filters pane from the report. You can vote on this same idea: Hide filters for shared Reports or prevent user from changing filters.
Meanwhile, as Filters pane not available in shared dashboard, you can customize link for the dashboard visuals to prevent end user entering original report mentioned in my previous post.

Thank you for your response. However, we do not see that option. Is that because we are using a live connected database?
Please let me know.
