Removing a Data Visualization from a dashboard deletes the visualization itself

[AnicaS]

When deleting a Data Visualization from a dashboard, the visualization appears to be deleted completely rather than only removed from that specific dashboard. As a result, if the same visualization is used in another dashboard, it is removed from there as well. Is this expected behavior in the current dashboard experience? What is the correct way to remove a visualization from only one dashboard without deleting the underlying Data Visualization record?

Hi @AnicaS 

Are you saving it to the library or applying it only to this dashboard? If you save it to the library, the change will impact all places where it is being used.

It’s a data visualization that appears in more than one dashboard; I only deleted it from one of them, yet it disappeared from the others as well, and even from the list of data visualizations.

But mate, how are you saving.

Data visualizations are saved in the library, but when I delete them, no prompt appears asking to save the changes to a specific location. I didn’t respond earlier because, when deleting them, there is no option to save the changes—neither in the library nor within the dashboard itself. That option only appears when I make other types of changes, without deleting anything.
