Manage dashboards
When managing dashboads, you can use:
- Select a time period for a dashboard using the Time range controls in the upper right of the dashboard.
- Tag dashboards.
- Use templating to make them more dynamic and interactive.
- Use annotations to display event data across panels. This can help correlate the time series data in the panel with other events.
- Use the dashboard picker for quick, searchable access to all dashboards in a particular organization.
You can also share dashboards in a variety of ways.
