Dashboard widgets

Dashboards are built from widgets, each of which reports on one part of your catalog. There are 4 categories of widgets:

• General: the historical DataGalaxy widgets, which let you quickly view the content of your modules

• Counting: widgets that let you follow the count and the evolution of the number of objects in your modules

• Activity: widgets that let you track user activity in the client space

• Quality: widgets that translate the quality of your catalog through the filling and completeness of your attributes and objects

To learn more about creating, editing and deleting widgets, see Manage the dashboards.
