Consider Filter Actions
Rationale
The VIZYUL™ Consider Filter Actions best practice rule fires when a dashboard doesn’t use filter actions.
Insight
Consider this, dashboards that empower viewers to ask additional questions about the information presented in the dashboard, by drilling down to deeper levels of insight, is one of the easiest ways to increase adoption. Tableau filter actions are a fast and simple way to add this level of interactivity to your dashboards.
With filter actions enabled on your dashboards you empower users to filter the data at the level important to them.
