The Collaboration template is a part of the Add Data module of WriteBackExtreme. It allows you to create annotations and comments on marks in your visualisations from within your dashboard. This improves the collaboration in dashboards in a highly efficient way. Keep track of your expert annotations and conversations on your most valuable assets.
General use cases for this module are:
Create and manage annotations on marks in your visualisations
Assign annotations to other users
Reply on annotations/comments to start the dialog
Collaborate to the full extend
The annotations are connected to the marks in your dashboard and stored in a separate table in a database. This allows you to use the annotations table as a new datasource and report on the annotations in a separate dashboard.
We will discuss the usage of the Collaboration module and assume you already know how to configure a dashboard that uses Collaboration. If you don’t know how to do this, you can take a look at the documentation for the (backend) or the (frontend).
You can follow along using the Collaboration dashboard in the for WriteBackExtreme. This is the dashboard we will be using in the documentation examples below.
