Adding Widgets to Analytics Boards

TL;DR

You can add widgets to an existing analytics board at any time by opening the board from Reports, clicking Edit, and selecting +Widget to create a custom widget. From there, you choose the widget type, pick the data and filters, set what values appear, add a title, and save it. You can also add static text by clicking Edit and then the T button to open the rich text editor. After that, save your changes, and if needed, drag and drop widgets to rearrange them on the board.
