Understanding the 'Decompose' Feature in Zendesk Explore

Discover how to use the 'Decompose' feature in Zendesk Explore to slice data points by additional attributes for detailed analysis.

What is the 'Decompose' feature in Zendesk Explore and how do I use it?

The 'Decompose' feature in Zendesk Explore allows you to slice selected data points by additional attributes, offering a more detailed view of your data. To use it, select one or more data points in your report and click 'Decompose'. Then, choose the attributes you want to use for slicing.
