Share Dashboards & Reports by Users or Roles
Dashboard sharing is extremely flexible — empowering you to tailor information access, streamline collaboration, and focus individual Users or Teams on the insights that matter most.
There are two ways to provide Dashboard access:
-
A. Role-based access → assign to teams based on their Role Descriptions
-
B. Private User access → assign to any individual Users in your organization
Designated users can create Private dashboards and effortlessly manage sharing and access permissions. Think of it like Google Docs for your data — create and share precisely with just those who need it.
To Share a Dashboard:
-
Open a Dashboard → click the Ellipsis (. . .) → and pick Share Dashboard
-
Open the Share With menu
-
Pick either a Role or an individual User → ex. Tango
-
Click Add
-
Set Permissions, by checking or unchecking the boxes → ex. Share
-
Click Save Changes
You can only assign permissions at or below the level of your Role Descriptions. If you are a leader, be careful with the permissions you'll allow. Let's look at each. (The '!' estmates the risk):
- View → Allows users to View the assigned Dashboard!
- Update → Permits the editing, additions, and deletions of the Widgets that drive a Dashboard!!!
- Share → Allows individual Users or Role-based Team Members to share a Dashboard!!
- Delete → Permits the individual to remove a Dashboard!!!!
Adding or Removing Permissions to Dashboards
-
Open a Dashboard → click the Ellipsis (. . .) → and pick Share Dashboard
-
Click X to remove an Individual or a Role-based team altogether
-
Check or Uncheck the Permissions you would like to add or remove → ex. Update
-
Click Save Changes
Creating Real-Time Dashboards & Reports
In real time, Dashboards capture what’s happening across your venue — including your security, housekeeping, medical, maintenance, and fan-related issues.
By designing and filtering your Dashboards, you can capture just the information you require to make a full accounting of your Events, team performance, and the health of your Venue.
In this report, the Venue is just looking at spills, Wet, Dry, and Bio.
