Dashboard FAQ

Can I have several dashboards?​

Yes, up to 10, one tab each: see Create a dashboard. All of them are yours; nobody else sees them.

Is there a dashboard for my team?​

No. Every dashboard is personal.

Why is there no Edit button?​

There is none on the dashboard anymore: Add a card is always at the top of the page, and each card has its own more button. To move and resize the cards, click Arrange.

Why do Add a card or Arrange show a padlock?​

Your role does not let you change dashboards. Hover the padlock: it says Your role can't add cards to dashboards. Ask an administrator. (Add a card) or Your role can't edit dashboards. Ask an administrator. (Arrange). Ask your administrator to give your role dashboard.create or dashboard.update. The cards already on the dashboard stay visible.

Can I move a card to another dashboard?​

Yes: click Arrange, tick the card, then Move to…: see Arrange your cards.

What happens to the cards when I delete a dashboard?​

They are deleted with it, and the notifications of the repositories that are in no other dashboard stop. Move the cards you want to keep first.

Why does a card say "Nothing here yet"?​

Because it has nothing to show for you. It says why under the title, for example "No open merge request that you authored, are assigned to or review…": the sentence names what would fill the card. Click Learn more under it to open the page of the card.

Does a card show only my own items?​

No. A card shows what your account can see among the components of the catalog. A product owner or a team lead sees every pull request of the repositories of the catalog that their token reads, and keeps their own with the My role filter: see Keep only your rows.

Why is the source astrolabe missing in Add new data?​

Because neither Deployments nor Compass is on. Ask your administrator to turn one on in Administration › Plugins: see Turn on a plugin.

A card says "List cut: too many items to read, only the most recent are shown."​

The source holds more than the card can read. The sentence appears above the table, and the rows shown are the most recent ones.

How do I read a card's source again?​

Click more on the card, then Refresh.

Where are the pages of the cards?​

Each tool has its pages under Integration: for example GitLab, Add the GitLab cards to your dashboard.
