Dashboard Navigation & Expected Behavior
The Insights dashboards have commonalities among them as they break down the data pulled for analysis in several different views.
Navigating Dashboard Widgets
There are multiple styles of charts used in the Insights dashboards. These are the most commonly used widget types found in the RapidIdentity Insights module.
Indicator Widgets

These widgets display a primary and a secondary value, calculating a specific total and average for an important data point. These can be clicked to access a Jump-To Dashboard with more data breakdowns and filter capabilities. The entire dashboard can be downloaded as a .csv or .png file from the kebab menu on the main header, or individually.
Pie Charts

Pie charts can be used to filter the rest of the widgets on the screen by clicking on the preferred section. The sections are identifiable by hovering over each color and reading the hovertext. Right-clicking a section will also provide a Drill-Down menu with access to a Jump-To Dashboard.

To download a pie chart as an Image or CSV file, click on the kebab menu at the top right of the widget and choose the preferred download format.
Note
Clicking on the pie chart as a filter, then clicking back to normal will wipe the default filters if set. These will need to be refreshed for the default filters as applicable.

Vertical bar charts typically represent one specific data point per bar, and within that have different aspects of measurement. Clicking any bar will filter the rest of the dashboard by that data for more focused displays of that particular data set. Each bar also has a drill-down option for further filtering. In some vertical bar charts, clicking on a bar will provide a secondary breakdown of the data within that bar's data set.
Trendline Charts

Drill-Down Capabilities and Filters
Most types of widgets (except Indicator Widgets and Starbursts) have the ability to right-click to a Drill-Down menu that contains further filters and occasionally a Jump-To Dashboard.
