    • Data Visualizations use graphics to show table, indicator, and other data. They combine and extend the functions of reports and Performance Analytics widgets from the Core UI.

    Important:
    You cannot place reports or Performance Analytics widgets on a Platform Analytics dashboard. You must create data visualizations instead.

    To access data visualizations, navigate to All > Platform Analytics > Library > Data Visualizations. Owners of a data visualization can access and share that visualization. Users whom the owner has shared a visualization with can access that visualization. Any user with access to data can create a data visualization based on that data.
