Interactive Filter - Applied across multiple tabs on the one Dashboard

Hi team,

I've created an interactive filter (filtering widgets/reports on company) which I've manually added into each individual TAB.

In hindsight, I am sure it would be more intuitive to have one interactive filter (added on the first tab) which then would filter across all tabs on the dashboard.

This seems very simple and more logical. However, where would I start and what would I need to create as a prerequisite(s)?

Below is how I initially whipped it up.

After consideration, below is how it should behave like

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks team.

Interactive Filters are scoped to the tab on the dashboard so you have to implement it as you originally did. However, if you add a breakdown to the dashboard, in addition to operating on Performance Analytics widgets, it can be set to "Act as Filter" which will allow you to use it as a single select interact filter (you have to configure the filter you want to to behave as, but you do not have to physically add the filter to the tabs).  The big restriction is that this can only work as a single select since that is all the breakdowns on dashboards support.

Shame this doesn't work.  Replicating the filters is painful for the user and eats up space.
