Dashboards let you customize how to view incoming data exactly as you like it. After all, the true value of data lies in the insights that can be drawn from it, and having the data organized definitely helps!
You can view data in various ways, using widgets. Below is an overview so you can see which widgets will be useful for your use case. Each widget can be configured, from the type of data it shows, to how this data is shown.
Once you have your widgets, you can arrange and rearrange them in your dashboard in Edit Mode, so the data that matters most is always on top.
