How to create a dimension selector specific to a single visualization?

[Astroraf]

I am creating a dimensions selector for a specific to single visualization. I want the viewer to be able to pick any of the widgets I have available in a dashboard and ultimately be able to create the dashboard they want to view. In my example below, you can see the person has chosen fields to visualize. I am trying to recreate this option for my users. I would assume I would do this in either BloX or maybe a plugin? Any suggestions @Liliia_DevX @DRay

I have not come across someone building this within Sisense without a plugin. I think you can do this with ComposeSDK. If you want to stay within the current sisense application (albeit with embedding) you could check out @Benji_PaldiTeam 's Viewer Dashboard 2.0 . This allows users to create dashboards based on predefined widgets and filters.

Hi @Astroraf ,

From the screenshot you shared, it looks like you have a single measure applied to a column chart and want to give users the ability to choose which dimension to apply it to.

Sisense offers built-in solutions for this, such as:
✅ Switchable Dimensions
✅ Dynamic Dimension/Value Chart

While these solutions work well, they require users to right-click to access the functionality, which may not be the most intuitive experience.

For a more user-friendly and interactive UI, Paldi Solutions has developed the Dim Switcher—a plugin that adds a dropdown directly within the widget, allowing viewers to seamlessly select which dimension to display.

If you're looking to enhance self-service BI capabilities, you may also find these add-ons useful:
🔹 Measure Changer – Allows users to switch between different measures dynamically.
🔹 Chart Type Switcher – Enables easy toggling between different chart types.

However, if your goal is to let users fully build and customize their dashboards by selecting widgets from a catalog, I’d highly recommend checking out the Viewer’s Dashboard Plugin as @HamzaJ  suggested — it has been designed specifically for this level of self-service BI.
