Dashboards
A dashboard is a group of cards neatly arranged on a grid, each card showing important data in charts and graphs. It's your one place for quick insights, helping you make informed decisions about your business or system with a single glance.
With Dashboards V2, we've made it simpler to add cards to dashboards, including Text Cards with Markdown Text. The experience and the design of the dashboards in Sprinkle have been upgraded. You can now effortlessly manage dashboard filters and make use of the convenient saved filters feature.
Dashboards V2 brings a host of new capabilities and enhancements to make your data visualization experience even more seamless and efficient. Here are the key highlights:
