Making a dashboard

Making a dashboard in Superset is quick and easy. Just go to Dashboards and create a new dashboard. In the form, fill in the Title and a string value in the Slug field, which will be used to create the dashboard's URL, and hit Save:

Dashboard for Chapter 1: Getting Started

The dashboard URL syntax is http://{address}:{port number}/superset/dashboard/getting-started. Replace the address and port number variables with the appropriate values, and you can use this link to open or share your dashboard.

Our dashboard is ready and live for users with accounts on the web server. In the next chapter, we will learn about user roles. After that, you will able to get your favorite collaborators to register. With them on board, you can start collaborating on charts and dashboards for your data analysis projects.
