Sisense gives your users powerful dashboards, but navigating between them is a different story. Out of the box, users rely on the native Sisense navigation pane to move between dashboards, which means breaking context, losing filter state, and wasting valuable screen real estate on a sidebar that belongs in the background.
​
For organizations managing dozens of dashboards across departments, regions, or business units, this friction compounds fast. Users get lost, filters reset unexpectedly, and embedded deployments feel clunky rather than seamless.
​
QBeeQ Dashboard Navigator solves this. This plugin adds a fully customizable navigation widget directly inside your Sisense dashboard, letting end users move between dashboards without ever leaving the current view, and without losing their filter context. Designers can organize dashboards into logical groups, present them in one or two hierarchy layers, and collapse the native nav pane entirely. The result is a cleaner, more professional experience that makes even large, complex dashboard ecosystems feel intuitive.
​Dashboard Navigator Key Features
​
-
1 or 2-Layer Dashboard Hierarchy - Group dashboards at the parent level with nested sub-dashboards underneath, surfacing dozens of dashboards in an organized structure while collapsing the native Sisense nav pane to reclaim screen real estate.
​
-
Three Navigation Display Modes - Choose between buttons, links, or tabs to match your layout and audience so the navigator fits naturally into any dashboard design.
​
-
Independent Group and Tab Styling - Configure color, active state color, font family, font size, font weight, font style, and border radius independently at both the group and tab level so the navigation matches your brand at every layer.
​
-
Per-Group Filter Scoping - Assign specific filters to specific navigation groups so only the relevant filter context passes when users navigate within that group, preventing filter bleed between unrelated analytical areas.
​
-
Sticky Filter Inheritance - When users navigate, the active filter scope is carried from the origin dashboard to the target, so users stay in context no matter where they go.
​
-
Embedded Dashboard Support - In embedded mode, designers control panel visibility (right panel, left panel, toolbar, header) directly from the widget settings with support for both View and Design embed modes and no URL engineering required.
​
-
Automatic Active State Detection - The navigator reads the current URL on load and highlights the correct group and tab automatically so users always know where they are, even when landing via a shared link or bookmark.
​
-
Live Widget Redraw on Configuration Changes - Style and layout changes in the editor panel trigger an immediate widget redraw, so what you configure is what you see, without saving and reloading.
​
-
Dashboard Filter Refresh on Navigation - When a user lands on a target dashboard, the navigator automatically triggers a filter update and refresh based on the inherited filter state, so data loads correctly without any manual action.
​
-
Zero Code Configuration - Layout, hierarchy, styling, filter scoping, and embed settings are all managed through the Sisense widget editor panel with no JavaScript, JSON editing, or deployment pipeline required.

Dashboard navigation shouldn't be an afterthought. When users have to hunt through a sidebar or lose their filter state every time they switch views, the analytical experience breaks down — especially in embedded scenarios where every pixel of the interface reflects on your product.
The QBeeQ Dashboard Navigator puts navigation where it belongs: inside the dashboard itself. Designers get full control over structure and styling. End users get a seamless, filter-aware experience across any number of dashboards. And organizations get to reclaim the screen real estate that the native nav pane was eating up. Turn dozens of dashboards into a coherent, navigable workflow — with no code, no context loss, and no compromises.
