Sharing Dashboards with Your Team
Make any custom dashboard visible to everyone in your organization with a single click.
Understanding Public vs. Private
Every custom dashboard you create has a sharing status. New dashboards are private by default.
- Private — shown with an orange border and lock icon. Only you (the owner) can see it.
- Public / Shared — shown with a green background and building icon. Everyone in your organization can see it.
How to Share a Dashboard
- Open the dashboard you want to share.
- Find the sharing toggle in the dashboard header — it shows a lock icon (orange) when private.
- Click the toggle — it switches to a building icon (green), meaning the dashboard is now public.
- The dashboard immediately appears in everyone's "Shared" section.
To make it private again, click the toggle once more — it returns to the lock icon.
Who Can Do What?
Dashboard owner can:
- View, edit, and rearrange the dashboard
- Toggle between public and private
- Add to favorites and schedule emails
- Archive or delete the dashboard
Other team members can (if the dashboard is public):
- View the dashboard
- Add it to their own favorites
- Schedule emails for it
Other team members cannot edit, change the sharing setting, or delete a dashboard they don't own.
Where Shared Dashboards Appear
- "Shared" section in the Dashboard Catalog — shows dashboards other users have made public (your own dashboards appear in your regular list, not here)
- "Recent" section — if you've recently viewed a shared dashboard, it appears here too
- "Favorites" — if you've starred a shared dashboard, it appears in your favorites
Best Practices for Sharing
- Name shared dashboards clearly. Everyone in your organization will see the name, so use descriptive titles like "Monthly Market Performance — Tourism Board" instead of "My Dashboard."
- Maintain shared dashboards. If you share a dashboard, your team will rely on it. Keep it updated and relevant.
- Don't over-share. Only make dashboards public that others genuinely need. Too many shared dashboards clutters everyone's Shared section.
