Enabling Jump to Dashboard on Left-Click in Sisense Column Charts

Afternoon Sisense Community,

In a Column chart, a user would like the ability to open a jump to dashboard by left-clicking on a column, rather than the current requirement to right-click for this functionality. Is it possible to enable this feature for left-click actions?

I’ve looked at something like seen here, but I couldn't get it to working JTD:  https://community.sisense.com/kb/widget_and_dashboard_scripts/customize-onclick-of-column-chart/9245

Any advice on getting a JTD dashboard working on a column chart via left click would be greatly appreciated

    Hi Laflet​ 

    Short answer: Jump to Dashboard (JTD) on column charts can only be triggered via right-click by default. There is currently no out-of-the-box option or documented API to switch this to left-click.

    The KB article you referenced (Customize onClick of Column Chart) only shows how to override the click event and redirect to a custom URL — it does not hook into the built-in JTD mechanism.

    If left-click navigation is required, the only workaround is to:
    - Add a widget script,
    - Capture the click event,
    - Manually redirect to another dashboard (constructing the URL yourself and passing filters as parameters).

    However, this will not use the native JTD plugin logic — it would be a custom implementation.

    If native left-click JTD behavior is important, this would likely need to be submitted as a feature request to Sisense.

    Hope this helps!
