Probably, I know the answer (‘no, it’s impossible to share interactive KNIME chart with somebody who has no KNIME installed on their machine’), however your confirmation will be more than welcome. I would like to share KNIME interactive chart with a person having no access to KNIME and enable him to use chart interactivity. My workflow ends with ‘Color Manager’ and ‘Stacked Area Chart (JavaScript)’ nodes. Is this possible without having KNIME installed on his machine? I’m sure he will finally install and use KNIME, however some people need time to accept a game-changer😊 Thank you in advance for your suggestions!

KNIME Teams Hub is a less expensive way of sharing dashboards as well on a small scale. You can also create an interactive dashboard in Excel using the Write to Excel Template node. If you have excel skills, then you can build an interactive dashboard tab based on array formulas that are pointed to a table in another tab which can be updated on every KNIME execution. You can even email the excel files via KNIME later in the workflow. The approach is much quicker to build out and more flexible than an interactive view, it allows the end user to make side calculations in the excel file or pull user interactions back into KNIME for further processing. You can embed the excel file into the data folder of a KNIME workbook so that it remains packaged when sending a workflow. I even use a component to either automatically or manually open it to easily present the dashboard to end users. The same approach works well for creating more complex user friendly settings controls in your workflows.
