Dashboards

Dashboards

Dashboards are collections of Insights, organized into a single view to monitor metrics, track KPIs, and share reports with your team.

What are Dashboards?

Dashboards combine multiple Insights (charts, metrics, tables) into a unified layout:

  • Widgets: add charts, text annotations, and grouped sections
  • Grid layout: arrange and resize widgets freely
  • Variables: filter all widgets at once with shared parameters
  • Agents: monitor dashboard changes with Agents

Goals of Dashboards

  • Centralize metrics: view multiple KPIs in one place
  • Enable monitoring: track real-time changes across Insights
  • Automate analysis: let Agents watch for anomalies and trends
  • Facilitate sharing: distribute reports to stakeholders
  • Provide context: combine related analyses for better understanding

Dashboard Variables

Variables let you parameterize your entire dashboard:

  • Shared filters: apply date ranges or segments across all charts
  • Dynamic values: switch between different dimensions or metrics
  • Variable mapping: connect dashboard variables to individual chart parameters

When you change a variable, all linked widgets update together.

Dashboard Agents

Attach Agents to dashboards to monitor them continuously:

  • Trend detection: get notified when metrics change significantly
  • Anomaly alerts: receive discoveries when data deviates from patterns
  • Scheduled reports: generate periodic summaries

Agents create Discoveries when they find something noteworthy.
