Change the Data Source for a Visualization

Each visualization in your exploration is associated with a specific data source.
For an empty visualization with no data items, ranks, or visualization filters, you can add a data item from any data source. The new data source is assigned to the visualization automatically.
To change the data source for a visualization that is not empty, follow these steps:
  1. If the data source that you want to use is not part of the exploration, then add the new data source. See Add Additional Data Sources to Your Exploration.
  2. Select the visualization for which you want to change the data source.
  3. Remove any ranks from the Ranks tab and any visualization filters from the Filters tab.
  4. On the Roles tab, remove all data items from the data roles.
  5. From the Data source drop-down list, select the data source for the visualization.
