Creating a custom dashboard

You might want to create a new (custom) dashboard completely from scratch or you have found a predefined dashboard that is mostly what you are looking for and just needs some tweaking.

For a new custom dashboard you create a dashboard that is pretty much empty except for four empty tiles. You have to configure everything yourself, including the data you want to show and in which way to show it.

If you want to have a dashboard similar to an existing one you can create a new one by using an existing one as a template and duplicating it.

Both options are explained in this article.

  1. Go to the menu Dashboards.
