Adding dashboards to the module
Use this procedure to add dashboards to a module. You can either link existing published dashboards or create a new one and group it under the required module for better organization and management.
Note: A dashboard must be linked to a module before it can be published to different levels.
You have two options:
- Add an existing dashboard to the module.
- Create a new dashboard and then add it to the module.
For steps to create a new dashboard, refer to the Creating a Dashboard article.
To add dashboards to a module:
- From the left navigation bar, click Dashboards under Dashboards & Reports.
This displays the list of dashboards available at your current account level—Domain, Organization, or Tenant. - Click the Modules view to switch to the modules cards page.
- Hover over the module card in which you want to create a category to view the kebab menu.
- Select Add Dashboard(s). This opens the Add dashboards to Module side sheet.
- Select the check boxes corresponding to the dashboard names that you want to add to the module. You can add one or more dashboards to the module.
- Click Done to add the dashboards to the module.
Cloning a dashboard
A dashboard can be cloned whether it is published from a parent account to a child account or created at the same level. However, if a dashboard is published from a parent account, it cannot be edited directly in the child account. To make changes, it must first be cloned, after which it can be modified as needed.
To Clone a Dashboard:
- From the left navigation bar, click Dashboards under Dashboards & Reports.
This displays the list of dashboards available at your current account level—Domain, Organization, or Tenant. - Click the Modules view to switch to the modules cards page.
- Click the module card containing the dashboard you want to clone. This opens the module's list view.
- Hover over the dashboard name to display the kebab menu (⋮), and select Clone Dashboard. This opens the Clone Dashboard side sheet.
- Provide the following details:
-
Dashboard Name: Enter a name for the new dashboard.
- If the dashboard is published from the parent account, you can reuse the same name.
- However, you cannot use the same name if a dashboard with that name already exists at the same level.
- Description: Enter a brief description of the dashboard.
- Hierarchy: Select the account level where the dashboard should be cloned. You can choose to clone the dashboard at the same or a different level.
- Module & Category: Select a module and category from the list of those created at the current account level. Dashboards cannot be cloned into modules or categories published from the parent account.
-
Dashboard Name: Enter a name for the new dashboard.
- Click Done to complete the cloning process.
Removing a dashboard from one or multiple modules
Use this procedure to remove or delink a dashboard from a module. Before proceeding, ensure that the dashboard is linked to at least one other module.
-
From the left navigation bar, go to Dashboards under Dashboards & Reports.
This displays the list of dashboards available at your current account level—Domain, Organization, or Tenant. -
Click the Modules view to switch to the module cards page.
-
Select the module card that contains the dashboard you want to remove.
This opens the module’s list view. -
Hover over the dashboard name to display the kebab menu (⋮), then select Remove Dashboard.
A modal opens with one of the following scenarios:-
Dashboard linked to only one module:
An information modal appears, guiding you to either:- Clone the dashboard and assign it to a different module, or
- Delete the dashboard if it is no longer needed.
-
Dashboard linked to multiple modules:
A confirmation modal appears prompting you to delink the dashboard from the current module. The dashboard will remain associated with the other modules.
-
Dashboard linked to only one module:
- Click Yes to confirm and remove the dashboard from the selected module.
Publishing Status of Dashboard(s)
There are two visual indicators displayed next to dashboards: one orange and the other purple.
- When you link a dashboard to a module or category, an orange icon appears. This indicates that the dashboard has not yet been published to any child account.
- Once the dashboard is published to one or more child accounts, the icon changes to purple, indicating that it has been published.
