5. All Reports
To browse and filter all dashboards and report engines assigned to you, click on All Reports from the left sidebar navigation menu.
1. Directory Filter & Sorting Controls
The directory toolbar allows you to refine your reports listing quickly:
- Category Selector: Use the Category dropdown (e.g. All, or specific business domains) to show reports belonging only to a chosen department or group.
- Sort Order: Use the Sort By dropdown (e.g. Recently Added) to reorder the report cards by creation date or alphabetical name.
- My Bookmarks Button: Click the My Bookmarks button on the right of the filter toolbar to immediately filter the view to display only your starred favorite reports.

6. My BookMarks
The My BookMarks page is a dedicated space to organize and quickly access the reports you use most frequently. It acts as a filtered index of your favorite reports.
1. Bookmark Filters & Sorting
Just like the All Reports directory, you can filter and reorder your favorited items:
- Category Selector: Filter your bookmarked reports by selecting specific categories from the Category dropdown.
- Sort Order: Reorder your bookmarked list using the Sort By dropdown (e.g. Recently Added).
2. Empty Bookmarks State
If you haven't starred any reports yet, or if no bookmarks match your current category filter, the page displays: "No bookmarked reports found."
7. How to View & Maximize the Report
After you click on a report from the list, it opens inside the Report Viewer. This is an embedded BI report (Power BI / Tableau etc.) as seen in your screenshot.
7.1 View the report
- Select the desired report from the left menu or report list.
- Wait for the report to load completely in the center area.
- Use any available tabs at the bottom (e.g., Overview, Operational Overview, etc.) to switch between pages.
- Use filters on the left/right panel inside the report to narrow down data.
7.2 Maximize the screen
To focus on the report only and hide browser distractions:
- Look for the full-screen / maximize icon near the top-right of the report viewer or inside the BI toolbar.
- Click the icon – the report will switch to full-screen mode.
- To exit full-screen, press Esc or click the full-screen icon again.
7.3 Exporting / Downloading Data
Depending on your report engine (like PowerBI or Tableau) and permissions:
- Look for an Export or Download icon within the report's toolbar (often located at the top-right or within a 'More Options' menu).
- You can typically download the data in CSV or Excel formats for further analysis.
7.4 Troubleshooting (Inactive Plan)
If you see an error indicating that your report or organization is inactive:
- Check with your organization's administrator to ensure that your subscription plan is active and in good standing.
- The report may be hidden if the billing cycle has lapsed or the trial period has expired.
8. How to Hide / Access the Menu (Sidebar)
Sometimes you may want more space for the report and less space for the left sidebar menu. You can easily hide or show the menu using the toggle:
- Locate the menu icon (three horizontal lines) at the top-left, next to the InsightsPulse logo.
- Click the icon to collapse the sidebar. Only icons may remain visible.
- Click the icon again to expand and bring back the full menu text.
This helps you see more of the report, especially on smaller screens.
