Hi Team/@Max , I want to see the underlying data of a chart/visual! I know there is View Summary option on every visual, but thats not what I want. Lets say i am in a bar chart, I want to see the underlying data/transactions of only Germany! ![image](https://d1wl4jav5dp96l.cloudfront.net/original/2X/6/666b378bda3acb266ac7f461b5be25d9b18c458e.png) Is there anyway I can see the complete data of just something, not the entire dataset. Lets say totally 1M transaction, but I am only interested on Germany’s transactions? ---

Hi @kodimalar.sakthivel You can do this via navigation action. Exercise 4 in this workshop explains how to achieve this. > **[Workshop Studio](https://catalog.workshops.aws/quicksight/en-US/author-workshop/3-add-interactivity/exercises)** > > Discover and participate in AWS workshops and GameDays ---

Hi @bergqdou , This helped a lot, I created a navigation action and get into the dataset. 1. But when i was referring the WorkShop Exercise 4 I didnt get something - Action Name value **“See orders from \<\> customers”** , I quite didnt get this part I understand the \<\<\>\> is a param but what about **see orders from customers** , is this working like a query? I tried something like this on my dataset but didnt work, so i am trying to decode what could this be? can you please help me with it? 1. When I do drill down into another level lets say from Country I went into State level, now can I see the dataset with only that particular state on? Basically asking that this Navigation Action can it work well when we are drilling down? ---
