Dashboard introduction
The dashboard is the first thing that appears in the GUI when logging into the Automation controller. This will show the following things:
- The total number of hosts
- The number of failed hosts
- The number of inventories
- Inventory sync failures
- The number of projects
- Project sync failures
- A job-status graph of successful jobs versus failures
- Recent jobs
- Recent templates
The dashboard looks like this:

The dashboard chart can be adjusted to display a different period of time, only certain job types, or only successful or failed jobs.
Along the side is the navigation for accessing all the objects in the Automation controller:

The navigation bar is the primary way of navigating the Automation controller.
