Dashboards are the consumable part of ProjectorBI. They are the final visualizations that your Projector users look and interact with. A dashboard is composed of dashlets. Each dashlet contains different types of information. Most of your dashlets will come from views in your reports, but some may be custom dashlets like your company's RSS feed or an activity feed of recently updated reports.
The dashlets on a dashboard are interactive. You can interact with a pivot table, view the numbers that compose a line chart, or drill down into geographic regions.
Users consume dashboards directly in ProjectorBI, from project landing pages, performance dashboards, or from project workspace dashboards.
Dashboards are viewable in four areas of Projector.
You can view a dashboard if:
A published dashboard is a read-only view of a dashboard. You cannot interact with it by drilling down,nor can you browse the back end data that comprises it. Only dashboards that have been published are viewable under Performance Dashboards or Workspace Dashboards.
Any Projector user with the general permission Enable user in advanced analytics module can create a dashboard. However, a user can only add dashlets from reports that are shared to them.
Dashboards are broken up into two categories. My Dashboards and Shared Dashboards. My dashboards are ones you own. You have complete control over them. Shared dashboards somebody else owns. They can grant you view permission, no permission, or edit permission.
You can set your own Default Dashboard. The default is displayed whenever you visit your Dashboards menu item. Or when you visit the Performance Dashboards area of Projector Web.
