The Explore Data landing page
With the Explore Data landing page, you can explore and analyze your application data quickly. Query your data, and then sort, filter, and group the results based on your business requirements. For example, with the Explore Data landing page, you can access the list of assignments that are routed to members of your team. You can then drill down and analyze the assignment statuses to determine the remaining workload for the current release. You can save queries that you make on the Explore Data landing page as insights.
Explore Data uses a view-based landing page and is the preferred data exploration tool for applications that use the Constellation design system. To learn more about the Constellation design system, see Constellation.
Note: If you have a Theme Cosmos application in hybrid mode, you must enable Cosmos React-based landing pages to use Explore Data. To learn more about the hybrid mode in Theme Cosmos, see Hybrid mode.
Insights
Insights are rules that Pega Platform™ uses to transform data queries into tables or visualizations that you can then share between users. You can use insights to retrieve specific data and present the data as a list or an interactive chart. For example, in an insurance application, you can visualize data for claims that are pending approval, and then analyze the type of claim and the amount submitted by users.
