Create Dashboards and add widgets

note

Actions in Dashboard must be configured separately for Live and Production environment.

Custom dashboards overview​

A dashboard is a visual display of your bot data that provides information at a glance. It has its own dedicated page and receives information from a linked database that can be configured according to your needs. You can choose the data you want to see and visualize it using charts or graphs.

Here are the features of the insights dashboard:

  • You can create Multiple Dashboards. In this, each dashboard can include multiple widgets (reports).
  • Widgets are the saved reports that are present on the data explorer page. The dashboard helps the analysts to add multiple widgets to the single page layout.
  • Widgets can be directly added to the Dashboard from the data explorer.

Usecase of insight dashboard​

Dashboards are useful for organizing and analyzing data based on common themes. For example, if your company has three different types of products and you want to check the analytics for each product separately but in the same place, you can create dashboards for each product and add relevant metrics to each dashboard. This allows you to view all the connected values under one view.

Access dashboards​

To view existing dashboards, go to the Insights section and select Dashboards. You can have multiple dashboards, and each dashboard can contain multiple widgets.

Filter dashboard data for a time period​

Irrespective of the filters added to the saved reports(widgets) you can add a data filter to your dashboard from the top left to specify a time period. This filter applies to all the widgets on the dashboard and allows you to focus on specific data within a given time frame.

Delete dashboard​

If you want to delete a dashboard, click Actions at the top right corner of the dashboard and select Delete.
