| 8 | +Dashboard panels have an *Explore underlying data* action that navigates you to *Discover*, |
| 9 | +where you can narrow your documents to the ones you'll most likely use in a visualization. |
| 10 | +This action is available for visualizations backed by a single index pattern. |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +You can access *Explore underlying data* in two ways: from the panel context |
| 13 | +menu or from the menu that appears when you interact with the chart. |
