2.6. Step 6: Disconnecting Interactive Connections

When you are done with analysis, you can disconnect the interactive connections by following these steps:
  1. On the Tasks list, click Disconnect Interactive Connection. The Disconnect Interactive Connection dialog box appears.

  2. Turn on Clean up revisions before disconnecting to delete each revision before closing. This option minimizes disk usage after your analysis is complete.

  3. To close the interactive connections in the workspace, click OK.
    Note: When you close Exploration Dashboard, all imported data is automatically saved and persists in the workspace. The data reappears the next time you open the workspace, so there is no need to save the workspace independently.
