Dashboards

Let’s take visualizing data a step further. The VP of Sales would like a Global Sales dashboard that lets her see the key information at a glance. A dashboard is a visual representation of data from multiple reports and does the following:

Displays data from custom source reports
Has a running user to determine what data is visible
Displays data as of the last time the dashboard was refreshed
Can be scheduled to be refreshed and emailed automatically
The dashboard editor in Lightning Experience gives you a responsive way of creating or editing dashboards using drag-and-drop. Let’s take a look.
