Navigating Dashboards

The catalog of monitoring dashboards can be accessed from the main navigation menu. Recently used dashboards are listed at the top for quick access and a Search bar is available to help filter down the list.

From the dashboard inventory, you can open an existing dashboard by clicking on it. When clicking the (...) ellipsis, you also have the option to clone, export, move, and delete dashboards.

Choosing a Dashboard Category

When creating a dashboard, you have the option to add the dashboard to an existing category of dashboards or create a new category. Dashboard categories help organize large volumes of dashboards and clarify the purpose of the dashboards within the group.

Managing Dashboard Categories

Dashboard categories are tied to dashboards and can be created when creating or moving a dashboard. Dashboard groups can also be renamed by clicking the (...) ellipsis next to the category name. A dashboard group will disappear if the last dashboard in the group is deleted or moved.
