You can change a dashboard name, add a description, certify it, configure visibility, and specify the requester, the owner, the owner group.

Before you begin

You can edit Dashboard Details for both dashboards created in UI Builder and dashboards created with the inline editor.

Role required: dashboard_admin for all dashboards, or any role for dashboards that you own or ones that you have been given the right to edit. See Platform Analytics dashboard roles for more information about viewing and editing rights on dashboards. Users who only have viewing rights can make changes to the dashboard's content, but aren't able to save those changes.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to All > Platform Analytics > Library > Dashboards.

  2. On the Dashboards overview, choose the dashboard you want to configure.

  3. Select the info button ([Omitted image "icon-info.png"] Alt text: information button) to open the Details panel.

    On the Details panel, you can edit several aspects of the dashboard.

    1. Edit the Name field to change how the dashboard appears in the Analytics Center and the Dashboard Overview.

    2. Fill in the Description to provide further context about what the dashboard is for.

    3. Mark the dashboard as Certified to inform the user that the dashboard is recommended for use across your organization.

      Note: You must have an admin role to mark a dashboard as Certified. For more information, see Certify a Platform Analytics dashboard.

    4. In Dashboard Visibility, view, add, or remove workspaces the dashboard can be added to.

      Important: Specifying a workspace here does not make the dashboard visible in that workspace. It only enables you to add the dashboard to that workspace. For more information about adding a dashboard to a workspace, see Add a dashboard to a Dashboards page.

    5. Specify one or more dashboard categories.

      For more information, see Platform Analytics experience dashboard categories.

    6. Specify who requested the dashboard.

      This user is considered a responsible user. The data visualization is shared with them, with editing rights.

    7. Specify the owner of the dashboard.

      By default, the owner is the creator of the dashboard, but the creator or owner can assign ownership to another user.

    8. Specify an owner group.

      The owner of a dashboard can be an entire group rather than a single person.

    9. See who created the dashboard.

    10. See who the dashboard has been shared with.
