Add a Dashboard

Instructions to 'Add Dashboard'

To add a new dashboard:

  • Navigate to the Dashboard module.

  • Expand the left panel by clicking the right arrow key.

  • Provide a name (this name will represent and help identify the dashboard) for the dashboard and click Create.

Once created, the next step is configuring Widgets, which dynamically display data from various modules in graphical or tabular formats.

Widget

Infraon widgets are pre-built components designed to pull key insights from your infrastructure, ITSM modules, and network data, and display them in clear, interactive formats such as:

Chart Type

Description / Example

Data Panel

Displays high-level KPIs or summary metrics in a compact panel format.

Example: Total Tickets Today, Total Active Assets.

Data Table

Presents detailed data in a structured table with sorting, filtering, and drill-down options.

Example: Asset Location Drilldown Table.

Line Chart

Visualizes trends over time with a line graph. Ideal for SLA breaches or request resolution trends.

Bar Chart

Shows comparative metrics in horizontal/vertical bar form.

Example: Tickets by Priority, License Usage.

Area Chart

Highlights cumulative growth or changes over time with shaded areas.

Example: Static Trend of Tickets.

Gauge Chart

Displays progress against a target or threshold (like a speedometer).

Example: SLA Compliance Rate.

Sunburst Chart

Provides hierarchical data in concentric circles for drill-down insights.

Example: Business Service Summary.

Widgets are grouped into multiple categories, such as Assets, Statistics, Events, Views, ITSM, Contract Management, IMACD, Purchase Orders, NCCM, System, Log Management, and IPAM, ensuring complete coverage across IT operations and business service management.
