Enable "link-back" to allow your readers to open the live visuals in the Pyramid Viewer, where they will see the latest data and can interact with the visuals dynamically.
The Link-back feature enables direct URL loading for data visualizations in exported publications. When Link-back is enabled, the user can click on any data visualization in the exported publication in order to load it in the Pyramid viewer client. Any slicers or filters saved to the discovery (both from Discover and from Publish) will automatically be loaded via external parameterization.

- Click back to go back to the exported publication.
- Apply slicer selections from any slicers that were saved to the discovery.
- Subscribe to the discovery.
