Dashboards list and folders
The Dashboards List has been upgraded for a smoother navigation experience. All Dashboards is now displayed in the top header for quick access from anywhere in a dashboard. The panel is wider for easier browsing, and a new 3-dot menu provides quick actions for each dashboard and folder. Import is now its own separate action, independent of the New button.
Open the Dashboards List
Select the Dashboards list icon in the top toolbar of any Custom Dashboard. The panel opens and displays all dashboards you have access to, grouped by folder.
To navigate back to the list from inside a dashboard, select All Dashboards in the header.
Browse and search
Folders are collapsed by default. Select the arrow next to a folder name to expand it and see the dashboards inside.
Use the Search Dashboard bar at the top of the list to filter across all folders by dashboard name and folder path. The search tolerates typos and partial words, so chekout still finds checkout-latency, and results are ranked by how closely they match rather than nested under their folders.
When nothing matches, the list shows No matching dashboards or folders with the hint Try a different search term. An account with no dashboards at all shows No dashboards yet and Create a dashboard or folder to get started.
Create a new dashboard
Select New in the Dashboards List to create a new blank dashboard.
Import a dashboard
- Select Import in the Dashboards List.
- Upload or paste the dashboard JSON.
The imported dashboard appears in the list and can be moved into any folder.
Permissions
Creating, renaming, and deleting folders requires the DASHBOARD-FOLDER:MANAGE permission. For details, see Permissions List.
Organize dashboards with folders
Create a folder
Select the New folder icon next to the search bar. Enter a name and confirm.
Import a dashboard into a folder
Open a folder's context menu and select Import dashboard to folder. The import dialog opens with that folder already selected, and the folder expands to reveal the dashboard once the import succeeds. The folder field stays editable, so you can still redirect the import somewhere else before confirming.
This needs the same permission as creating a dashboard in a folder.
Move a dashboard into a folder
Drag a dashboard from the list and drop it onto the target folder. The dashboard moves into that folder immediately.
Folder nesting depth
A folder can contain one level of subfolders, so the tree runs two levels deep. Deeper nesting is rolling out gradually. If your organization needs it, contact us via the in-app chat.
When you plan a structure, remember that a dashboard's folder is not part of its URL. Moving a dashboard between folders never breaks a link to it, so you can reorganize freely later.
Rename or delete a dashboard or folder
Select the 3-dot menu next to the dashboard or folder name and choose Rename or Delete.
Deleting a dashboard is recoverable
Deleting a dashboard does not destroy it. Coralogix archives it, together with its full version history, and keeps it indefinitely.
This matters most when deleting a folder, since removing a folder that still holds dashboards takes all of them with it in a single action.
There is no self-service restore today. To recover a deleted dashboard, contact Coralogix support with the dashboard name and roughly when it was deleted. If its original folder no longer exists, support can restore it into a folder you choose.
Deletions and restores are both recorded in the audit log, so you can see what was removed and by whom.
API
HTTP
| API Name | Usage |
|---|---|
| Dashboards | The Dashboards API provides programmatic access to Custom Dashboards. Use it to create and update dashboards, manage their layout, widgets, variables, filters, annotations, actions, time frame, and constants. This is the API behind everything you build through the Custom Dashboards UI. |
| Dashboard Folders | The Dashboard Folders API manages the folder hierarchy that organizes your Custom Dashboards. Use it to create, rename, move, and delete folders, and to look up a folder's FolderPath for permission inheritance and cross-references from dashboards. |
