Chiclet Slicer, Button Slicers

[Matteo_Saul]

Hi QuickSight Community,

I’m exploring QuickSight for building interactive dashboards and was wondering if there is a feature similar to the Chiclet Slicer in Power BI. In Power BI, the Chiclet Slicer allows for a highly customizable and visually appealing way to filter data, using buttons or tiles instead of standard dropdowns or sliders.

Is there an equivalent feature in QuickSight that provides similar functionality, or are there any recommended workarounds to achieve a similar user experience?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi @Matteo_Saul and welcome to the QuickSight community!
After exploring the chiclet slicer capabilities in Power BI a bit more; currently there is not a comparable feature within QuickSight. There are work arounds to create buttons, but to have the same functionality like being able to toggle those fields on and off a visual may not be achievable through the current work arounds. You can see more about button creation at the article linked below:

Using buttons to navigate the sheets

Hi Team, Is there a way we can add buttons that navigate to different sheets within our dashboard? I want to create a Daily, Weekly and Monthly view for the cost incurred to the org. I want to provide the user an ability to toggle between these sheets to switch from daily to weekly to monthly view, order not necessary. I looked at a couple of similar questions on the forum but none of them have clear responses. I want to use the navigation action using a button or a link on one of the sheets …

I agree though that this is a neat feature that could be a nice addition to QuickSight. So I’ll tag this as a feature request to promote visibility to the support team.

Let us know if you have any additional questions!
