Create a Dashboard

Dashboards and panels allow you to show your data in visual form. Each panel needs at least one query to display a visualization.

Before you begin

• Ensure that you have the proper permissions.
• Identify the dashboard to which you want to add the panel.
• Understand the query language of the target data source.
• Ensure that data source for which you are writing a query has been added

To create a dashboard

1. Sign in to FojiSoft, hover your cursor over Dashboard, and click + New Dashboard.
2. Click Add a new panel.
3. In the first line of the Query tab, click the drop-down list and select a data source.
4. Write or construct a query in the query language of your data source.
5. In the Visualization list, select a visualization type. FojiSoft displays a preview of your query results with the visualization applied.

   

6. Add a note to describe the visualization (or describe your changes) and then click Save in the upper-right corner of the page.

Notes can be helpful if you need to revert the dashboard to a previous version.

Configure repeating rows

You can configure FojiSoft to dynamically add panels or rows to a dashboard based on the value of a variable. Variables dynamically change your queries across all rows in a dashboard.

Before you begin

• Ensure that the query includes a multi-value variable.

To configure repeating rows

1. On the dashboard home page, click Add panel.
2. On the Add a panel dialog box, click Add a new row.
3. Hover over the row title and click the cog icon.
4. On the Row Options dialog box, add a title and select the variable for which you want to add repeating rows.

You can place a panel on a dashboard in any location.

1. Open the dashboard.
2. Click the panel title and drag the panel to the new location.

Resize a panel
