Toolbar

The toolbar at the top of the screen contains tools relevant to the item open at the time. Based on the type of resource that is opened, a corresponding toolbar is displayed on the right of the bar, with functions relevant to the resource that was opened. These functions can be accessed at any time.

Toolbar features

  • Refresh - Select to refresh the current resource.

  • Save - Select to save the current resource.

  • Resource options menu (ellipses) - View menu items for options and functions relevant to the open resource.

  • Edit - Select to go to design mode for a specific resource.

Note

Certain options and tools will appear here only when they are relevant to a particular resource. Examples are the long-running query button (which will appear only when a report has a long-running query) and the number of pages button when a report's result spans more than one page.

Resource Explorer

The Resource Explorer stores and provides access to all data hub resources (e.g. analyses, dashboards, and models) in a hierarchical format.
