what is the advantage of placing visualizations in master list?

[#1]

Let's say the users have been trained and are comfortable with creating their own visualizations -- i am trying to figure what is the benefit of putting visualizations in master list?

(I have been using it a lot for measures and dimensions. it's great -- any changes to master measure/dimension gets carried to over to all sheets in the app. But I am not sure if I need that for viz's so looking for other advantages that I might not be aware of)

Thank you!

Hello Paras,

It really makes more sense when an app is published to a stream within Qlik Sense Enterprise. The app's Master Items can provide predetermined visualizations that can be used as templates for new visualizations to be build from that can be used in the users own sheets. Or perhaps, the same visualization makes sense in another sheet used in combination with different visualizations - you may not want to create the same visualization again, etc.
