The best place to tell end users about data issues is often the tool they use every day. A BI status badge shows in your BI tool whether there are issues on or upstream of a data product.

Example: a badge in Looker that shows an ongoing incident on or upstream of a chart

Creating a BI badge

A badge shows the status of a data product, so you need a data product first. To show the status of one chart or dashboard, create a data product that contains it. See Creating a data product.
  1. Go to .
  2. Open the data product, go to the Settings tab and select Status badge.
  3. Copy the Markdown or SVG URL, depending on what your BI tool supports. title
  4. In your BI tool, add a widget that shows the URL. How you do this depends on the BI tool.
Looker example
In Looker, click Add > Markdown and paste the Markdown URL from Coalesce Quality into the Body.
title
Your BI tool shows a tile with the status of the data product. The Markdown version links to the Issues tab of the data product in Coalesce Quality, so a click on the tile shows the issues behind the status. title
