QuoteIn IBM® Cognos® Analytics - Reporting, you can populate a visualization with data that is specified in the visualization definition instead of adding data items from a package.

About this task
You can use data that is specified in the visualization definition to test a visualization before you add your own data. Using data from the visualization definition is also a way to bring external data into a visualization.

Procedure
Select the visualization.
In the Properties pane, double-click the Use Embedded Data property.
Select the check box of the data container for which you want to use data that is defined in the visualization specification.
Tip: Some visualizations have more than one data container.
Results
The data container is removed from the visualization. The data container is not required when the visualization is using data from the visualization definition.

Its been written there in analytics report studio user guide but um not getting property called 'Use Embedded Data' by selecting any of visualization or its 'container data'.

I'm not seeing it either. I wonder if the visualizations I'm using don't currently have embedded data within them though...
