Data visualisation dashboards are a dynamic and interactive way to communicate complex data relationships and provide data-driven insights in an easy-to-understand way. 

Supported data visualisation dashboards

You can embed dashboards on vic.gov.au and other Single Digital Presence (SDP) websites using an iframe.

...

To request a platform be whitelisted, please submit an SDP technical support request (you'll need to log in to Jira or sign up to log requests).

Sizing and display

Dashboards on vic.gov.au in landscape orientation will either display 818 pixels wide if sidebar features are enabled, or 1056 pixels wide if sidebar features are disabled.

...

If you want your dashboard to take up the full width of a page, we suggest linking directly to your dashboard rather than embedding it on a vic.gov.au page.

Accessibility requirements

Although SDP allows the embedding of data visualisation dashboards, we don't encourage them on vic.gov.au because they don't meet our digital accessibility requirements, where content should be perceivable, operable, understandable and robust. 

...

If you embed a dashboard on your page, you must add an accessibility disclaimer to your page, including contact details so that users can request your dashboard data in an accessible format.

Alternatively, you have the option of linking externally to your dashboard, which means you do not have to add an accessibility disclaimer to your page.
