| GMaps Plugin functions as a selector, allowing an end user to click on any data point or polygon shape to navigate, drill, or trigger any other dashboard functionality. There are multiple properties in GMaps Plugin that can be combined in any form to create the exact user experience you desire within your dashboard.

Series Name Destination
Series Name Destination is a single cell where GMaps Plugin will insert the series name, as data points, polygons, etc are selected. This property allows you to capture the current selected series so you can trigger additional advanced behaviors like drill down.

Source Data
Source data is a single value or range of values associated with a single data point, line segment, or polygon shape within a single series. The source data property is enabled for the following insertion types and is detailed below with each insertion type:
ROW
COLUMN
Destination
The Destination property defines where source data is inserted once a data point, line segment, or polygon is selected. How the destination range is defined, depends on which insertion type is selected. A description of the destination requirements is listed below for each data insertion type.
Note: GMaps Plugin V3.0 and greater enable dashboard developers to define a unique insertion type for each series created. View migration notes for this change
Insertion
GMaps Plugin currently supports two data insertion methods (position and label).
Label Insertion- When a data point or polygon shape is selected, GMaps Plugin will insert the assigned label into the destination property.

Destination- The destination property should be linked to a single cell. GMaps Plugin will only insert label into the destination range when a data point is clicked. |
