Dashboard Builder
This page provides information about building dashboards for the following scenario:
Marketers want to understand how to use dashboards to combine all Looks into a comprehensive report.
Click New > New Dashboard.
In Enter the name of the Dashboard, enter a suitable name for the dashboard and click OK.
CDP displays a new blank dashboard page.
Each element in a dashboard is called tile. You can build your dashboard by adding multiple tiles.
The following are the types of tiles:
| Tile type | Description |
|---|---|
| Look-linked tile | You can add the saved looks to dashboards. These tiles are linked to a look and the dashboard displays the changes to the look. The look and the dashboard must be in the same space. If the look is deleted, the dashboard displays an error for this tile. A look-linked tile is suitable for creating, changing, and testing a query in one place and using it in multiple dashboards. |
| Query tile | You can create a look from scratch and save it as a tile in the dashboard. These tiles are not linked anywhere and the changes only reflect within the dashboard. You can convert a look-linked tile into a query tile using the gear icon at the top of the Look screen. It breaks the connection so that the tile is unaffected by any later changes to that look. The query tile still exists independently on the dashboard even if the look is deleted. |
| Text tile | You can add headers and text to your dashboards. You can use them to make visual sections on a dashboard or add descriptions as needed. |
