CaliberMind Insights - Using Dashboards

KEEP IN MIND!
-Before you make any changes to a dashboard duplicate the dashboard first!
-Make modifications to the duplicated dashboard.
-The standard, out-of-the-box dashboards are linked to templates that will overwrite your templates whenever an update is made centrally.

Dashboards

A Dashboard is a collection of one or more widgets that help the user visualize data. Dashboards are meant to provide end-users with a summary or overview before stepping down to explore granular data. On the Analytics page, you can see dashboards that were created and shared with you on the main navigation.

The dashboards are numbered to help users remember to always start at the top (#1). They are made to begin at a high-level view and then drill down into more detailed views as questions arise.

Duplicating a Dashboard

Copying a dashboard (even one that was shared with you) creates a new copy of the dashboard with a different name. This new dashboard is totally separate from the original. You are its owner, meaning that you have full editing rights. How to duplicate a dashboard

  1. Click on the Ellipses to the right of the dashboard's name in the Navigation Pane and select Duplicate.
  2. The new dashboard is added below the copied dashboard in your Navigation Pane with the same name plus a number in the order it was created.

Aggregation Date Filter

The aggregation filter is a short-cut for commonly used data that is relative to date and time fields. This filter functions at the dashboard-wide level.  Select values within the aggregation filter to update the time groups displayed in any charts where the filter is implemented. To change the granularity of the aggregate dimensions select the desired time frame.
