# Note

> This section explains how to create note dashboard elements and add them to your dashboard.

The note dashboard element adds a textbox to your dashboard that you can customise to your needs. For example, you can provide context in a note about the other dashboard elements.

## Prerequisites

* [Create an Axiom account](https://app.axiom.co/register).
* [Create an empty dashboard](/dashboards/create).

## Create note

1. Go to the Dashboards tab and open the dashboard to which you want to add the note.
2. Click <Icon icon="plus" iconType="regular" /> **Add element** in the top right corner.
3. Click **Note** from the list.
4. Enter your text on the left in [GitHub Flavored Markdown](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/writing-on-github/getting-started-with-writing-and-formatting-on-github/basic-writing-and-formatting-syntax) format. You see the preview of the note dashboard element on the right.
5. Click **Save**.

The new element appears in your dashboard. At the bottom, click **Save** to save your changes to the dashboard.
