Locking Filters

As a Designer, you can lock a filter, preventing Viewers from making any changes. The Viewer will be able to see the defined filter settings, but the filter will be disabled for editing.

Note: You must have access to edit a dashboard to view this option.

For a short video overview of creating a locked filter, see below:

 

To lock a filter:

1. Click the Filter menu.
   
2. Click Lock.
   A lock icon appears to indicate that the filter is locked.
   To unlock the filter, click on the menu, and select Unlock.
