Where do I find the data-report-id?

[GertVH]

I'm trying to create a link to a certain part of a dashboard. I have read that you can do this by using the unique ID of the visual (data-report-id). I have tried to find this ID using the developers tools, however, until now, I didn't find it.

I know you can link to different pages of a Looker Studio report.

I don't think we have anything in our official documentation about linking to an individual visualization! Where did you read about this?

Hi Sam8;

I asked Google Gemini. Depending on how you ask the question it either says that it's possible or not...

According to the Gemini FAQ:

Gemini sometimes gets things wrong or says things that aren’t true. These hallucinations can sound real, and Gemini might even say them confidently.

This applies to questions about Google products as well.

I still don't think this is possible, but I'm curious what you're trying to achieve with such linking! If you share more details about your use case, the community and I can help brainstorm other ideas to achieve it!

Hi sam8,
Thanks for your help!
We would like to hyperlink from one part/page in a looker studio to a specific part of another/page in a(nother) looker studio. This helps users to connect related information and graphics to one another.
Our dashboard-pages are quite long so it would help if we could jump directly to the correct location within a page.

That makes perfect sense!

I don't know of a way to achieve this, though. I found this feature request about adding anchors to reports, this sounds like it would help a lot for your use case!
