Collaborating

Cognos® Analytics 11.1.0 provides several collaborative features in the new Share panel. Cognos Analytics is now integrated with the Slack application, allowing you to send messages and content to other Slack users. Also bundled are existing features to create links to content and to export dashboard content to a PDF.

Sending messages and content using Slack

From the Send tab, you can post a message to a Slack channel or directly to another Slack user, along with a link to a piece of analytic content. If your content is open, you can send an annotated image of the content via Slack.

Linking to Cognos Analytics content

The Share and Embed options available in the content explorer and within an open piece of content are available in the Link tab.

Exporting to PDF

The export to PDF feature of dashboards is now available in the Export tab.
