Naming a dashboard

Each newly created dashboard will display “Untitled dashboard” as the name by default. To set the name of your dashboard, click the “Settings” button in the top right-hand corner in dashboard edit mode. Give the Dashboard a name and select “Save Changes”.

Tagging a dashboard

In addition to naming your dashboard (4) in the dashboard settings modal, you can also create and add tags (5) for categorization. Tags enable you to provide context around the data presented in a dashboard and quickly filter down to the dashboards that are most relevant. We recommend adding a tag for your personal dashboards. This is a great way to stay organized when collaborating with your team.

Sharing a dashboard

After a dashboard is created, it can be shared with internal and external users. First, you will need to make the dashboard public by clicking the “Share” in the actions menu (8). Share settings can also be accessed from the specific dashboard page.

In the share settings modal, switch the toggle (9) to “ON” to make the dashboard public. Each public dashboard uses its own generated access key. To make the dashboard private again just switch the toggle back to “OFF”.

You can also regenerate a public link by clicking the “Regenerate Link” label (10). This action will remove the old access key connected with the dashboard and create a new one.
