Manage Dashboards

Once you have configured the Dashboard with your preferred Widgets, the layout can be saved so that it can be accessed later by yourself or other users. When saving a dashboard, it can be classified as public or private depending on the access rights. A public dashboard can be viewed and used by any other Axon user, whereas a private dashboard can only be viewed and used by its creator.

These saved custom dashboards can be loaded, duplicated, modified, or deleted as desired.

Save a Dashboard

After adding and removing widgets on the default Dashboard as desired, you can save the changes so your custom dashboard can be re-accessed later.
