From Discover Lite, you have a variety of ways in which to dynamically interact with your data on-the-fly. You can easily explore your data set using dynamic interactions like dicing, drill, quick sort and filter, and more. These tools are accessible via the right click context menu and are designed to be simply and easy to use. With a couple of clicks, you can change the way the data set is presented in your visualization.
To access interactive query functions:
- Right-click the cells, columns, headers, legends, or segments of the visual
- Right-click the chips in the drop zones

Functions
- Add, Remove, and Swap - Injecting, remove, and replace hierarchies respectively. (These options are variations of Dice.)
- Dice - Dicing allows you to 'drill across' from a chosen element into another hierarchy.
- Drill Down, Drill Up, and Drill to Level - Move between different levels of a user hierarchy. Drill up or down to the next or previous level of the hierarchy, or drill to a specified level of the hierarchy.
- Expand and Collapse - Where expand icons (+ / -) are shown in a grid, you can use this option to hide and show multiple levels of the hierarchy.
- Member and Data Point Selection - Select elements and data points for analysis directly from the visuals.
- Quick Sort - Sort the data and items in your visual by descending, ascending, or custom values.
- Quick Filter - Filter the data and items in queries
- Pivot - Switch the discovery's x- and y-axes. (Rotate selections between drop zones in your query design.)
- Totals - Add "totaling" to grids to add context and information to the report.
Extended Interactive Functions
Aside from the interactive functions listed above, the context menus also showextended capabilities. These are functions that extend beyond typical data consumption and analysis. These functions include Calculation tools, Actions, Alerts and Conversations.
- Calculations: build typical mathematical functions on content without writing any code. The calculations are automatically included in the query.
- Actions: jump to another report or dashboard based on a contextual click.
- Alerts: attach a triggered event to notify you if a data point has changed (up, down or the same).
- Workflows and Conversations: add or reply to workflow and discussion threads that are attached to data.
