Display Dashboards

Overview​

The Dashboard Area of Mia-Platform Console allows you to keep the tools you use to monitor your project close to its configuration. In this section, which is accessible from the main menu, you can visualize as IFrames the dashboards you created with your monitoring tools (such as Grafana, Kibana, etc.).

Managing Dashboards​

From the Dashboard Area, you can add, edit, and delete dashboards. Each environment has its own dashboards, since you usually want to monitor a specific environment. Changes to dashboards in one environment will not affect dashboards in the other environments.

All of the following instructions are intended for the Dashboard Area.
