  1. The Dashboard;
  2. The Menu;
  3. Redash Favorites Link;
  4. Search Bar;
  5. User Options; and
  6. Dashboard Options.

  2. Select Edit from the options list. Edit Dashboard Edit Dashboard
  3. Your Dashboard will change into edit mode so that you can make changes to it. Editting Dashboard Editting Dashboard

While you are in the edit mode of the dashboard you can:

  • Add widgets (an individual visualization or text box from queries that can be added to the dashboard for instant viewing);
  • Edit and resize widgets;
  • Delete widgets; and
  • Apply dashboard level filters.

To add a Widget to the dashboard click on the Add Widget button at the bottom right hand of the screen. Add Widget Add Widget When you click on Add Widget a list will appear with two tabs, Visualizations and Text Box. In the Visualizations tab only existing visualizations for that model will be available for selection. Users can also search for visualizations when there is a very long list. When a visualization has been selected, click Add to Dashboard at the bottom right of the Add Widget window. Add Widget List Add Widget List

To add a Text box simply start typing into the Text Box. Then when you are happy with the information select Add to Dashboard at the bottom right of the Add Widget window.
