Creating Analytics Boards From Templates

Overview

Regular users can create and view analytics boards. External users and collaborators can only view analytics boards shared with them.

You can use one of the available pre-built templates to create a powerful analytics board instantly or create one from scratch.

Available templates

There are five templates available:
