How Templates Work
A template defines the layout, widget types, chart configurations, and metric definitions for a specific use case. When you create a dashboard from a template, you go through the Dashboard Builder wizard:
- Data Sources - select the data sources for your dashboard
- Business Domain - confirm or adjust the industry/niche
- Define Metrics - the template pre-selects relevant metrics, which you can customize
- Design Layout - the template provides a starting layout that you can rearrange
- Deploy - name your dashboard and launch it
Template Categories
Templates are organized into 26 categories based on business function, including:
- Sales & CRM - pipeline tracking, revenue by product, sales team performance
- Marketing - campaign performance, lead generation, channel comparison, ROI
- Finance & Accounting - P&L overview, cash flow, budget vs. actual, expense breakdown
