Replicating a Cube View in tabbed dashboards

I have a cube view with a parameter on UD5 |!param5!| that I would like to put in a tabbed dashboard that has one tab for specific members in UD5. I though the way to do this would be to use the literal parameter values in the Dashboard Properties. I have tried entering the following:
param5=member1
and done this for 4 dashboards. The problem is, ALL the dashboards have the value of member4 since this was the last dashboard in the list to be rendered. If I swapped the order (1,2,4,3) then all dashboards have member3 as the filter. I have tried setting the parameter up as a literal and input parameter and it behaves the same way.
Is there something wrong with the syntax?

TIA,
James

Hi James,

Not sure what your level is, but this sounds like an ideal use case for dynamic dashboards. But as the note says in the documentation, this is really meant for developers.

Dynamic Dashboards (onestream.com)

Nevertheless, as the number of members vary and you might accidentally create a large number of tabs, how about using something like a drop down list or tree view selection instead to select your parameters (= UD5 members)? I would imagine this to be more user friendly and sustainable.

Yes, a list box component may work well here too.

I have similar situation where I have a cube view with a parameter on Entity |!Entity_select!| that I would like to put in a tabbed dashboard that has one tab for specific Entity member. I am using dashboard type "Embedded dynamic repeater" where the component is data explorer report.

Data explorer report has data adapter component to the Cube View. I thought the way to do this would be to use the template parameter values in the collections. But it shows error as attached below.

It seems that the template parameter was not passed to Entity_select parameter. 

Is data explorer report component compatible for dashboard embedded dynamic repeater?



Thank you,
