Dashboard manager
The dashboard manager in the Device Management application brings more flexibility, consistency, and control over device dashboards. In particular, it offers the following options:
- Type-based dashboard templates - Build once, apply everywhere. Create dashboards that automatically apply to devices of the same type, saving time and ensuring consistency across your environment.
- Multiple dashboards per device - Add as many dashboards as you need to a single device to tailor different perspectives for different use cases.
- Custom dashboard names - Label dashboards with meaningful names that match your workflows, so your teams can quickly find the views they need.
ROLES & PERMISSIONS:
- To view dashboards: READ permission for permission type “Inventory” or READ permission for “Inventory” in inventory roles
- To edit widgets within a dashboard: ADMIN permission for permission type “Inventory” or CHANGE permission for “Inventory” in inventory roles
- To create a dashboard: CREATE or ADMIN permission for permission type “Inventory” or CHANGE permission for “Inventory” in inventory roles

To add device or type-based dashboards
To add a new dashboard for a device, click Add dashboard in the device details menu.
To share a dashboard with devices of the same type, enable the template option for the dashboard. Template dashboards become available to all devices with the same type. These shared dashboards are marked with the
icon, making them easy to distinguish from device-specific views.
