View-Only vs Exploratory Access Explained

View-Only Access

View-only access means:

  • Viewers see the dashboard exactly as you shared it

  • No changes to date ranges or filters

  • Ideal for presentations or high-level reporting

This is the safest and most restrictive option.


Exploratory Access

Exploratory access allows viewers to:

  • Change date ranges

  • Apply available filters

  • Explore trends over time

Viewers still cannot edit dashboards or data, only how it’s viewed.

This is ideal for:

  • Managers

  • Labels

  • Analysts

  • Long-term collaborators


Choosing the Right Access Level

  • Use view-only for artists or public sharing

  • Use exploratory access for trusted stakeholders who need flexibility

Permissions can be changed at any time.
