When you have created several reports and charts then you can create dashboards which can show several reports on one page. Dashboard page with all key reports about the specific business area can provide a quick overview of the current business status and key performance indicators.
If you would like to share your reports on some web page using iframe or post them on big screens using wallboard option, or send on email, first, create dashboards in flex.bi. And only then you can share this dashboard as you see fit.

By default, flex.bi dynamically calculates the height of the reports. You can change and fix the report height [9] when editing the dashboard. If you show several reports on the same row then adjust them to the same height to ensure that they are always aligned when changing the browser window size.
Click Reset to default [10] to return to the automatic report height calculation. Don't forget to Save changes [11] of the dashboard layout.

You can arrange dashboards in folders. Dahsboards share folders with reports; you can manage dashboard folders (create new, rename, or delete them) from the Analyze tab.
