Disable View Suppression

Enabling the 'Suppress Views' option on the Display Settings page hides data views that lack a registered data source until that data source is registered. When the data source that populates a view is registered, that view is no longer hidden.

View Suppression applies to views that are placed on dashboards by default. View Suppression does not hide views from administrators when they use the view categories to edit a dashboard.

The Suppress Views option is enabled by default. You can disable it for troubleshooting purposes, or to aid decision making when you are considering deploying another data source. When View Suppression is turned on, the View Suppression indicator is shown in the upper right of the page.

An indicator informs you that View Suppression is enabled

Follow these steps:

  1. Log in to your user account. View Suppression is available to users with any role.
  2. Select My Settings, Display Settings, and click the Display Settings menu item.

    The Display Settings page opens.

  3. Select 'Display All Views' from the View Suppression menu.
  4. Click Save.

    The View Suppression indicator disappears from the Infrastructure Overview page.

Note: When you enable View Suppression, you can also click the View Suppression indicator to access the Display Settings page.
