Preview mode lets you see how your dashboard will behave for viewers without leaving the editor. When you enter preview mode, editing controls hide and viewer interactions like drilling, cross-filtering, and pagination become active.

Requirements

To follow this guide, you’ll need content permissions that allow you to edit dashboards.

Entering preview mode

To enter preview mode while editing a dashboard:
1
Click the Edit button on the dashboard to enter draft mode.
2
Click the icon in the toolbar:
3
Select an option:
  • Desktop - Shows how the dashboard will render on desktop screens
  • Mobile - Shows how the dashboard will render on small screens

Exiting preview mode

To exit preview mode and return to editing, click the Exit preview button in the preview banner at the top of the page. You’ll be returned to the editor with your state intact — selections, unsaved edits, and other editor state are all preserved.

Preview mode vs. View As user

Unlike preview mode, the View As user feature lets you test how specific users will experience the dashboard based on their user attributes and access permissions. Use preview mode to test the viewer experience of your dashboard layout and interactions. Use View As user to test how the dashboard adapts to different users’ permissions and attributes.
