What

Documents the "Links between dashboards" feature (CUB-557; built on the merged links primitive #10852) on both sides — authoring and consumption:

Authoring (data modeling)

  • Guide docs/data-modeling/dimensions.mdx: new ## Links section — links is a list (a dimension can declare multiple links), a per-link parameter table (required/optional; url or dashboard per link), an Icons subsection (Tabler names), a Setting a dashboard slug subsection, and a Behavior subsection (per-row resolution, null omission, drill-in vs external, equality filters, graceful unknown-slug handling).
  • Reference reference/data-modeling/dimensions.mdx: notes links is a list (one or more), clarifies the dashboard value is the target dashboard's slug (deployment-scoped) with drill-in + cell-menu behavior, and the icon name format.

Consumption (dashboard UI)

  • Table chart docs/explore-analyze/charts/chart-types/table.mdx: new ## Cell menu section — left-click selects + opens the menu (data-model links / drill-in / Copy value / Drill down); Cmd/Ctrl-click → new tab; Shift-click selects; right-click → native browser menu. Clarifies how this differs from the existing per-column Display → Link option.

The two are cross-linked (modeling ⇄ table cell menu).

Notes

Docs-only. Companion to the Cube Cloud feature PR cubedevinc/cubejs-enterprise#12540. Draft pending that feature's release.
