Collaborate on CRM Analytics Dashboards in Experience Cloud Sites

To create annotations, click to open your embedded dashboard in CRM Analytics. Then select
Annotate from the dropdown menu on a widget.
In the annotations panel, you can type messages and @mention people in your org who
have access to the dashboard. You can also share screenshots of the current state
of the dashboard. CRM Analytics dashboard annotations are natively integrated with
Chatter, and comments on dashboards also appear as Chatter posts. If users click
the Follow button, they see all comments on the dashboard.
From Chatter, they can click the dashboard image to navigate directly to the
annotation on the dashboard in CRM Analytics, where they can add to the
conversation. For more information, see Collaborate with Dashboard Annotations.
The visibility of posts depends on the type of user that makes the original post. For
security, external site users can’t see annotations originated by your org’s
internal users (unless the external user is @mentioned). But if an internal user
replies on an annotation started by an external user, then all users can see all
posts. For more information, see the visibility property in the Connect REST API
Developer Guide.
