  4. 4Use “Add charts” to pin existing charts onto the grid.
  5. 5Switch dashboards, or create a new one, from the selector in the toolbar.
  6. 6Use Embed / export to share the whole dashboard or download its data.

A Glimpse BI dashboard — KPIs and charts on a 12-column grid with a global date filter.

The grid

Dashboards use a 12-column react-grid-layout that reflows responsively. Tile positions are stored as a layout (chart_id + x/y/w/h) in post meta — the charts themselves live separately and are only referenced.

The Home dashboard

One dashboard is marked Home and is shown when you open the Dashboard screen with no specific dashboard selected. It’s protected from deletion so there’s always a landing view.
