Dashboards

Custom dashboards

Create saved views for the repositories, workflows, and metrics your team follows.

Custom dashboards save a view so you do not have to set up the same filters each time.

Good uses for custom dashboards #

  • A dashboard for one team or service area
  • A view centered on a small set of repositories
  • A reliability-focused dashboard for unstable workflows
  • A queue-time dashboard for a platform or developer productivity team

Filters and date ranges #

Filters and date ranges control which data a dashboard shows. They do not create a separate copy of your workflow data.

A custom dashboard is a saved view, not an exported report. Build it around a question your team comes back to regularly.

When to keep using built-in dashboards #

For broad, common questions, the built-in dashboards are still the best starting point. Use custom dashboards when you keep narrowing to the same repositories, workflows, or metrics.
