Create dashboards

This section introduces the Dashboards tab and explains how to create your first dashboard.

Dashboards provide a single view into your data. They visualize collections of queries across multiple datasets in one place. Dashboards are easy to share, benefit from collaboration, and bring separate datasets together in a single view.

Dashboards tab

The Dashboards tab lists the dashboards you have access to.

  • The Integrations section lists prebuilt dashboards. Axiom automatically built these dashboards as part of the apps that enrich your Axiom experience. The integration dashboards are read-only and you can’t edit them. To create a copy of an integration dashboard that you can edit, fork the original dashboard.
  • The sections below list the private and shared dashboards you can access.

To open a dashboard, click a dashboard in the list.

Create dashboards

To create a dashboard, choose one of the following:

  • Generate a dashboard using AI based on a natural-language prompt.
  • Create an empty dashboard.
  • Fork an existing dashboard. This is how you make a copy of prebuilt integration dashboards that you can’t directly edit.
  • Duplicate an existing dashboard. This is how you make a copy of dashboards other than prebuilt integration dashboards.

After creating a dashboard:

  • Add dashboard elements. For example, add a table or a time series chart.
  • Configure the dashboard. For example, control who can access the dashboard and change the time range.

Generate dashboards using AI

Explain in your own words what you want to see in your dashboard and Axiom’s AI generates it in seconds.

  1. Click the Dashboards tab.
  2. In the top right corner, click New dashboard.
  3. In Type, click Generate dashboard.
  4. In Dataset, select the dataset from which you want to generate the dashboard.
  5. Add a name and a description. Explain in detail what you want to see in your dashboard. The more specific you are, the closer the generated dashboard matches your expectations.
  6. Click Create dashboard.
Info

You can currently generate dashboards based on a single dataset. After generating the dashboard, you can edit it and add dashboard elements that rely on data from other datasets.

Axiom samples events in your dataset to understand the data schema and generate dashboards using AI. For the sampling to be meaningful, your dataset needs to have a minimum number of events. The exact number varies, but around 3,000 events in the last 7 days is usually sufficient.

For more flexibility, use an AI coding assistant with the Build dashboards skill. This approach supports multiple data sources, iterative follow-up prompts, and using screenshots of existing dashboards from other tools as context.

Create empty dashboards

  1. Click the Dashboards tab.
  2. In the top right corner, click New dashboard.
  3. In Type, select Empty dashboard.
  4. Add a name and a description.
  5. Click Create dashboard.

Fork dashboards

  1. Click the Dashboards tab.
  2. Find the dashboard in the list and right-click it.
  3. Click Fork dashboard.

Duplicate dashboards

  1. Click the Dashboards tab.
  2. Find the dashboard in the list and right-click it.
  3. Click Duplicate dashboard.

Delete dashboard

  1. Click the Dashboards tab.
  2. Find the dashboard in the list and right-click it.
  3. Click Delete dashboard.
  4. Click Delete.
