  • promote generic Dashboards that are placed into multiple Folders using different alias name that are relevant to the Folder

This new feature helps administrators to quickly add a Dashboard to Folder(s).

Dashboards can now be easily associated to a Project.

To do that, simply go to the target Dashboard, click on the menu icon then click "Link Dashboard to Project(s)".

Each Dashboard can be associated to multiple Project(s).

Design Changes


Sorting

Sorting (drag and drop) function of the Folders and Dashboards has been removed.

Instead, Folders and Dashboard are automatically sorted by natural order.

As an alternative to sort the Folders or Dashboards, consider prefixing a number to the Folder name or Dashboard alias name.
