Article summary

This topic describes various common tasks that administrators can perform on Drill throughs.

In the Drill through home page, you can see all existing Drill throughs and their main information: the table is sortable and searchable using the interactive header fields. You can also show or hide columns to your liking, by clicking the Column chooser button in the upper right corner of the table.

You can perform different actions on one or more Drill throughs by selecting them and by clicking on the different buttons above the table.

The available actions are described below.

  • To edit the configuration of an existing Drill through, click on the Name of the Drill through to open the sliding panel of its properties and mappings.
    Once in the configuration area, you can edit the connection by clicking on the open new window icon next to "SQL to connect". Keep in mind that any edits to the source connection that you make will require a refresh of the Drill through screen (since it is open in another window). You can also edit the mapping settings by selecting the "Mappings" tab at the top of the panel

  • To copy an existing Drill through protocol, select it and click the "Duplicate" icon above the table, then enter the name of the new protocol

  • To delete a Drill through, select it and click on the trash icon that appears above the table. This action will delete the Drill through and cannot be undone.
