Managing dashboards

This topic covers the way you can create and manage dashboards in Imply Pivot.

Composing dashboards

You build a dashboard one tile at a time. There are several ways to add a tile to a dashboard:

• While creating or editing a dashboard, click and drag over an empty space to create a new tile. For example:

Select the content type you want. The tile menu displays settings such as the Title, the source Data Cube, the Filter, and other options.

• When viewing a data cube, click Add to dashboard in the data cube's header bar. Select an existing destination dashboard or create a new one. For example:

Editing dashboards

To edit a dashboard, click the pencil icon in the dashboard header. With the dashboard in edit mode, you can add, rearrange, delete, and rename the views.

You can also change the settings for the dashboard while in edit mode. For example, you can adjust the color theme of the dashboard or modify sharing permissions.

To display the Dashboard options, click Options in the header bar.

Exporting and importing dashboards

Imply Pivot lets you import and export dashboards as JSON objects.

To export a dashboard, open the Dashboard options. From the General tab, click Export. The dashboard downloads to your designated downloads directory.

Importing dashboards requires the ConfigureLookAndFeel privilege. To import a dashboard, navigate to Settings > Advanced. Click Import dashboard to open a dialog box where you can paste the JSON object representing the dashboard to import.
