A DataGalaxy dashboard is a set of customizable widgets that report statistics on the spaces and versions you choose. You can create as many dashboards as you want.
Who can access a dashboard?
There are two types of dashboards:
- Private: only the dashboard's creator can read and modify it
- Shared: all users can read the dashboard, but only the client space administrators can edit or delete shared dashboards, including those created by other users
