Interact with dashboards

When you open Dashboard, you’re presented an overview of your dashboards. If you don’t have any dashboards, you can add sample data sets, which include pre-built dashboards.

Once you open a dashboard, you can filter the data by entering a search query, changing the time filter, or clicking in the visualizations, searches, and maps. If a dashboard element has a stored query, both queries are applied.
