Article summary

Copying a Trend Insight enables you to create a copy of an existing Trend Insight to add any new events associated filters, breakdowns, and to change user filters, user breakdowns, chart type, or date. This process minimizes time and effort by avoiding the need to create an entirely new Trend Insight to visualize updated parameters.

Whatfix enables you to copy Trend Insights in the following three ways:

  • Copy Trend Insight from the list view
  • Copy Trend Insight from within an existing Trend Insight
  • Save changes made to an existing Trend Insight as a new Trend Insight

  1. On the Whatfix Analytics dashboard, click Insights.

Note

Any changes made to an Insight that is part of Dashboards reflect in the Dashboards as well.

Use the copied Insight in other Dashboards, and changes made to this Insight do not impact the original Insight in the other Dashboards.
