Note

This feature is supported in communities, but not in portals, for users with a Customer Community Plus or Partner Community license. If you don’t already have Analytics for Communities, this feature requires setup. For more information, see Share Analytics with Communities.

Community users can annotate dashboard widgets with comments posted in the dashboard and in Chatter. The annotations hold users’ conversations about their data and how it’s visualized, with the dashboard right there for reference.

If users click the Follow button, they see all comments on the dashboard. From Chatter, they can click the dashboard image to navigate directly to the annotation on the dashboard in Analytics, where they can add to the conversation.
