14.2. Accessing Dashboard Builder
Dashboard Builder is accessible through Business Central and as a standalone application.
Within Business Central, Dashboard Builder can be accessed directly from the Dashboards menu at the top. The Dashboards menu contains two items:
- Process & Task Dashboard displays a pre-defined dashboard based on runtime data from the Execution Server. To learn more about Process & Task Dashboard, see Section 14.3, “Process & Task Dashboard”.
- Business Dashboards displays an environment in which you can create your own dashboards. This chapter contains procedures that provide instructions on how to create a custom dashboard.
Dashboard Builder can be accessed as a standalone application as well.
- Start the server.
-
After the server has successfully started, navigate to
https://HOST_NAME:PORT/dashbuilderin a web browser. For example https://localhost:8080/dashbuilder. - Log in with the user credentials created during installation.
After you log in, you are redirected to the Showcase workspace with the welcome page displayed.
At the top of the page, you can change the workspace, the page, as well as find general configuration buttons. This interface area is common for all workspaces.
Dashboard area with variable content, a lateral menu on the left and the main dashboard area on the right, is located below the common interface area.
