Can I trigger an embedded card drill-down via code?

Hey all,


I'm embedding cards from Domo into my web app (text type cards). Some of them have a drill-down path set, so if a user clicks on the number, he/she will trigger the drill-down and see a table.
However, since clicking on the number to get the full data might not be intuitive enough for my customers, my idea is to create a button on my web app to trigger the drill-down of my cards (one or many it doesn't matter).
My question is then: Is it possible to trigger drill-downs via code? If yes, is there any document explaining the process?

Thanks a lot!

    There isn’t a way that Domo provided to drill into a card programmatically. I’d recommend adding this as an idea to The idea exchange


    It may be possible to utilize some low level JavaScript and DOM inspection but it’s a very technical route and I haven’t done it myself yet but just an idea

  • Hey @GrantSmith

    Thanks for your answer. I indeed tried to trigger it with js clicks but it's harder than expected, so I was looking for an easier way

    Best regards
