Editing Insights

Yellowfin’s Instant Insights functionality analyzes your data and generates useful insights. The system enables you to create a new report from the insights that were generated - including the charts that appear in the Auto Analysis panel. The report that is generated can be used like any other Yellowfin report. In this way, you can turn interesting insights discovered by Yellowfin, into reports that you can run regularly and include in your dashboards.

 

This tutorial will show you how to create a new report from your Instant Insights.

 

  1. On generating Instant Insights, the Auto Analysis panel will appear, displaying the insights produced by Yellowfin.

  2. Select the charts that you want to edit or view the reports of, by clicking on their select icon.
