Introduction to Analyzing Data

In the Analytics page, you can see dashboards that were shared with you on the left or the main dashboard area below.

To open a dashboard, you can click the title of the dashboard on the left side or click the dashboard tile below. This opens up the dashboard inside the Analytics page.

Alternatively, if you have a lot of dashboards, you can search for dashboards by typing the title in the Search field. As you begin typing, any relevant results are displayed.

To locate a dashboard by name, source, or owner, you can use search operators within the Search field. Sisense supports the following operators:

Analysis Limitations

  • Sisense is limited to calculating numbers greater than 16 digits, which can either be an integer (whole number) or a real number with a floating point. Data returned in widgets and table previews display values rounded up to 16th digit.
  • Live models do not support all data types. The following data types are supported in live models:
    • BIGINT
    • BOOLEAN
    • CHAR
    • DATE
    • DECIMAL
    • DOUBLE
    • FLOAT
    • INTEGER
    • NUMERIC
    • REAL
    • SMALLINT
    • TIME
    • TIME_WITH_TIMEZONE
    • TIMESTAMP
    • TIMESTAMP_WITH_TIMEZONE
    • TINYINT
    • VARCHAR

You can add unsupported data types, by manually casting table fields with custom columns or custom import queries.
