How to create Executive Dashboard in AppD

[soundarajan]

Hello,

We've started using AppD in our team for the very first time. As of now, we're exploring the tool features and functionalities. So at present we working on the point to create a dashboard for management to witness the business performance and the impact of an application. 

We've instrumented our internal Password recovery tool(.net) for a demo purpose now. 

We need to create an Executive Dashboard as shows in AppD Documentation., showing real performance and impact values of application in DB.

But I'm unable to get exact widget types as shown in the example to create values. Could someone please help me with how to create a dashboard as in attachment?

Regards,

Soundarajan

Hi Soundaragan,

The dashboard screenshot you posted has an Absolute Layout, which allows you to position widgets anywhere and overlap them, for example Metric Value widgets positioned on top of Health Status widgets.

The "Revenue per Minute ($)" chart is a Timeseries Graph widget using data from an Information Point.

The red and green circles are Health Status widgets bound to health rules.

The numeric values are Metric Value widgets.

The remainder of the text labels are Label widgets.
