Reporting Use Cases
The Url field from the Reviews dataset provides a direct, clickable link to a specific review in its source application. Its most critical function is to bridge the gap between high-level reporting and the detailed, actionable context of the original feedback.
Enabling Drilldowns and Investigation: This is the field's most essential use. When you create an aggregated widget, such as a chart of "Reviews per State," and drill down into a specific slice like
CHANGES_REQUESTEDtheUrlfield is a mandatory dimension in the resulting list. It allows users to instantly navigate from the aggregated data to the exact review that needs attention.Providing Context in Lists: In any report that lists individual reviews, including the
Urlas a dimension transforms a static report into an actionable tool, enabling users to read the full context, see the associated code, and participate in the discussion directly in the source application.Filtering by Source Platform: You can also use the URL's structure to filter your reports by the source platform. For example, a filter like
Url ~ "github.com"will create a widget that only shows reviews from your GitHub repositories, allowing you to analyze activity on a per-platform basis. Note, however, that using theSource Appfield is generally a better alternative for this use case.
