To enable interaction between the Pivot and other dashboard items, you can use the interactivity features. These features include Master Filtering.
Master Filtering
Data displayed in the Pivot dashboard item can be filtered by other master filter items. The image below displays the Pivot dashboard item filtered by Tree View.
You can prevent the pivot from being affected by other master filter items using the Ignore Master Filters button in the Pivot's Interactivity menu.
