What is a dashboard

Dashboards are where data becomes actionable. A dashboard in Indicate is a visual layer where you turn your data products into clear, interactive insights.

Dashboards combine multiple widgets, KPIs, and charts into one view, helping you monitor performance and make fast, data-driven decisions.

• Each dashboard belongs to a project.
• You can include as many widgets or data visualizations as needed, all powered by your connected data products.
• Align your organization: one dashboard = one shared truth.
• Detect patterns quickly through charts, comparisons, and filters.
• Create transparency by showing live KPIs across teams.
• Encourage exploration with interactive widgets and filters.

• You can create different dashboards for different audiences, e.g. Marketing Overview, Financial Summary, or Operational Performance. </aside>
