Templates

Templates are preconfigured dashboards designed to display relevant information about an entity: device, asset, subscriber, subscription, and tickets.

Creating a Template

In the dashboard actions menu, select the “Save as template” option.

You can delete and modify the templates configured for a workspace.

Open Templates

From most widgets displaying information about an entity, you can access these templates to view the information of that device on a dashboard referred to as a “temporary” dashboard.

Once you click on the link, you’ll be shown the “temporary/template” dashboard with the information from the entity you opened it from. There, you can choose which template you want to use to view the information for that entity:

These dashboards can’t be managed, and any changes to filters won’t be saved. They can only be cloned within a workspace. A cloned dashboard will then function like any other dashboard.
