Admin Designer (Advanced Creation Role) šŸ“Š How to Create a ā€œTableā€ Visualization

Written by AurƩlia MICALLEF

The table visualization allows you to display data in a readable and interactive table format. It's ideal for exploring data in detail and easily downloading it.

šŸ”§ Key Available Features:

  • Sorting on one or more columns (by clicking the column header)

  • Automatic pagination for navigating large volumes of data

  • Reorganizable columns (drag & drop)

  • Filtering (e.g., show only a specific region)

  • Free-text search to dynamically filter visible results


šŸ› ļø What Customization Options Are Available in Tables?

Designers can adjust:

  • Number of rows displayed per page (e.g., 50, 100…)

  • Visible columns (hide unnecessary ones)

  • Column order (drag and drop)

  • Display formats for numbers, dates, or percentages

  • Conditional formatting (e.g., highlight values above a threshold)

  • Custom column names


šŸ“ How to Export Table Data?

Several export formats are available for the data displayed in a table visualization:

  • CSV

  • Pivoted CSV

  • Excel

  • PDF (with adapted layout)

  • Image

šŸ‘‰ Exports respect the filters applied.

You can also export the entire dashboard:

  • Click the ā€œ...ā€ button at the top right

  • Choose ā€œDownloadā€

To share the dashboard:

  • Click the ā€œ...ā€ button at the top right

  • Select ā€œShareā€ to copy the URL or send it via email

  • Recipients must have access to the tool to view the dashboard


šŸ” Is It Easy to Navigate Large Tables?

Yes. For large datasets, the BI tool offers:

  • Automatic pagination to load data by page

  • Integrated search bar for quick filtering

  • Full-screen mode for better readability


šŸ“Œ Can We See Details About Applied Filters?

Yes, active filters are always visible above the visualization. This helps quickly understand the context of the displayed data.


🧾 Is Documentation Embedded in the Visualizations?

Yes, all visualizations (including tables) can be documented. Each chart can include a description with:

  • Chart definition

  • Calculation rules

  • Possible values

  • Useful business notes

This helps both Designers and Viewers quickly understand what they are viewing.
