Grid card
The grid card allows you to show multiple cards in a grid. It will first fill the columns, automatically adding new rows as needed.
Screenshot of the grid card.
To add the grid card to your user interface:
- In the top right of the screen, select the edit
button. - If this is your first time editing a dashboard, the Edit dashboard dialog appears.
- By editing the dashboard, you are taking over control of this dashboard.
- This means that it is no longer automatically updated when new dashboard elements become available.
- Once you’ve taken control, you can’t get this specific dashboard back to update automatically. However, you can create a new default dashboard.
- To continue, in the dialog, select the three dots
menu, then select Take control.
- If this is your first time editing a dashboard, the Edit dashboard dialog appears.
- Add a card to your dashboard.
All options for this card can be configured via the user interface.
