Sharing a Dashboard

You can share a dashboard with different users and give them the read, edit, or full permissions. Any changes made in the dashboard is visible to all the shared users. However, auto-arranging or re-arranging a widget’s size and position is reflected only on the current user’s dashboard.

Using a Shared Dashboard

Note

  • If a user does not have access to a repo used in a shared dashboard, the dashboard is populated from other selected repos.

  • If only one repo is selected in the shared dashboard, and the user does not have access to the repo, the dashboard is not populated.

  • If the visualization for a widget in a shared dashboard is changed by users with the Edit or Full permissions, the change is reflected across all the users. However, if the visualization is changed by a user with the Read permission, it is only reflected for the current user.

You can also use a shared dashboard from the Add Dashboard panel.

  1. Go to Dashboard from the navigation bar and click the + icon.

  2. Select Shared Dashboards.

  3. Select the dashboard you want to use and click Ok.

Note

While deleting a shared dashboard’s owner, you must delete the shared dashboard or transfer the dashboard’s ownership to another user. You can do this from the Transfer Ownership panel that appears when you attempt to delete a user whose dashboard is being shared.

  1. To transfer the ownership, select a user from the drop-down and click Submit.
