A dashboard viewer has several ways to affect what a data visualization shows in runtime.
* **[Column filters in the Data visualization library](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/UlScjmGBMqvUZHvsfKv5Bw)**   
  Every column in the data visualization library can be filtered. The options for filtering depend on the type of data in the column.
* **[Select a group-by value in a data visualization as a viewer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/oxI7ahlAByCuX5XVMleAMw)**   
  A viewer of a data visualization can select the value for grouping the data in the visualization.
* **[Refresh a data visualization as a viewer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/kw80MNkw6XbufeiLwuf9MQ)**   
  A viewer of a data visualization can refresh that data visualization without refreshing the page or having editing rights.
* **[Download a data visualization from a dashboard](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/X8794BRydir7cfoqub0klg)**   
  As a viewer, download individual data visualizations from a dashboard or the Visualization Designer. Output formats differ between Lists and other data visualizations. The available output formats are CSV, Excel, PNG and JPEG.
