Easily recreate and share visual analyses

Panel Configurations (Beta) build on and expand the capabilities previously offered by Views in Explore v1, providing more granular control, greater flexibility, and improved reusability across analysis workflows. They let you capture and reuse the complete visualization setup of an individual Panel, including Channel selections, axis mappings, color scales, hidden states, and styling preferences.A configuration can be applied to one Panel at a time on new Runs or other Assets for consistent and repeatable analysis. Configurations can also be edited and shared to support collaborative team workflows. When applying a configuration, you can choose whether it affects a single data source or all sources. Learn more.
