Introduction to Dashboards

Dashboards are a Spreadsheet.com document type, like Workbooks and Reports.

Like Reports, Dashboards can display information from multiple workbooks and can be shared with other Spreadsheet.com users, or with the public.

What is a Dashboard?

A Dashboard is a graphical overview of various pieces of data and information. In Spreadsheet.com, each Dashboard is made up of a grid of widgets.

Dashboards can include graphs, significant figures, embedded Views and Reports, images, and more. Creating a Dashboard can help you visualize large amounts of data, as well as present findings to other people without having to grant them access to the underlying workbooks.
