AgileData.io - Straight to the Tile: Links That Open the Data, Event and Concept Maps Where You Need Them

When you want to point a colleague at a specific part of your data landscape, sending a link to a map and then explaining what to search for adds friction. Map links can now carry that context with them.

Adding ``?search=`` to a Data Map link opens the map already filtered to that phrase. On the Preview Data Map you can use a tile's full table ID, such as ``consume.orders``, to point at exactly one tile. The Classic Data Map now labels the tile you named, as well as highlighting its lineage.

The Classic Event Map and Concept Map now support ``?focus=``, which the Preview versions already used. A link can open either version focused on a single tile.

**What's New:**

* ``?search=`` opens the Data Map (Classic and Preview) pre-filtered
* Preview Data Map search matches a tile's full table ID
* ``?focus=`` now works on the Classic Event Map and Concept Map
* Search phrases from links are cleaned safely before use

**What this means for you:**

* Share a link that opens exactly the tile you're talking about
* Build bookmarks and documentation that jump straight to the right place
* Less time explaining where to look
