Workspaces

The first thing we encounter when entering the web platform is the workspaces landing page. A workspace is used to group our dashboards.

In the workspaces landing page you will see the sections bellow:

favourite dashboards groups all dashboards marked as favourite. Only will be displayed if favourites found.
workspaces displays workspaces marked to show in home and others shared with user/organization. Collaborative workspace shows dashboards shared with user/organization.

all dashboards were you can search any dashboard and access to it directly

Workspaces can be displayed in 3 different modes:

grid where the user can organize the dashboards
carousel dashboards will be displayed in a carousel (no user configuration required)
list dashboards will appears in a list showing its metadata on mouse over (no user configuration required)

Creating a Workspace

There are two ways to create a workspace:

Click on the ‘NEW WORKSPACE’ button.
Access the workspaces and dashboards menu, and click on the ‘+ New workspace’ button.

Configuration

You can:

Give it a name and description and choose an identifying icon. Also you can assign a banner image and select if you want to hide workspace in home.
Enable/disable different actions that can be performed within the context of the workspace. This will determine which wizards are accessible from the various workspace menus and their dashboards.
Redirect actions to a specific wizard, as long as more than one wizard can perform that action.
Manage the templates that will be used within the workspace’s context.

Once you have created your workspace, you can start creating your panels with their various widgets.
