The dashboard editor

The dashboard editor is where you compose a custom view of your assets' data using a drag-and-drop grid layout.

Getting started

  1. Open the editor from Settings → Asset Templates → [template] → Dashboard, or from the Dashboard tab on an asset detail page (see Creating dashboards and rules from the asset detail page).
  2. Add a widget from the searchable catalog.
  3. Bind the widget to one or more template variables.
  4. Optionally set aggregation (last, count, sum, max, min, mean) when the widget requires it.
  5. Save: the dashboard is immediately available to all assets of the template (template dashboard) or only to you (personal).

In view-only mode you can browse the dashboard; editing template dashboards is reserved for Admins (and Support where applicable).
