Pinning

Use pins to set aside insights from your dashboards and stories.

As you work with your data in Cognos Analytics, use pinning to set aside insights from dashboards and stories. You can also set aside other items, such as images. You can quickly add these visualizations and other items to dashboards and stories that you create to share your findings with others.

You can select multiple items in a view, and then add each item to your collection of pins at the same time. You can also group items in a view, and then add the group of items as one pin to your collection of pins.
