Overview

You can view your dashboards in a web browser or on a mobile device, which gives you access to business intelligence content anywhere. Typically, a dashboard contains multiple widgets with summary information from which you can drill down as necessary to more detailed reports and charts.

Because of the variety of business roles and tasks, there are no restrictions on the format or content of dashboards. Instead, the application gives you the tools to create personalized dashboards, while guiding you towards functional layouts. There is, for example, no grid to dictate where you place content. Instead, there are helper lines and snapping functionality to help you to position, reposition, and resize widgets precisely. There are options to specify the size of dashboards for optimum functionality on different screen sizes.

There is a Dashboards tab from which you access saved dashboards, and one or more content connection tabs from which you can drag content onto your dashboards. You can add web content to your dashboards and store copies of widgets that can be reused in multiple dashboards. In addition, each widget has tools to control its properties.

Only https can be used for mobile applications.
