Hi all, I am trying to make a custom action to drill down a visualisation into another model, so for example to drill down financial data into business development model is this possible? What custom URL should I include?

@Grace this should be possible. but the exact workflow needs to be tested 1. create a custom action 2. listen on the custom action 3. trigger a drill down host event now how you need to trigger will depend on payload

 liveboardEmbed.trigger(HostEvent.DrillDown, {
     points: {
       clickedPoint,
       selectedPoints: selectedPoint
     },
     columnGuid: "<guid of the column to drill>",
     vizId: payload.data.vizId
   });

 liveboardEmbed.trigger(HostEvent.DrillDown, {
     points: {
       clickedPoint,
       selectedPoints: selectedPoint
     },
     columnGuid: "<guid of the column to drill>",
     vizId: payload.data.vizId
   });

so you need to figure our these details as well first check out this : https://developers.thoughtspot.com/docs/Enumeration_HostEvent#_drilldown
