About the Custom Dashboards page

The Custom Dashboards page is where you access Observability dashboards that you've customized. You can customize dashboards to include metrics for a service to make them more visible and accessible in a single location.

Before you begin

Custom dashboards are disabled by default and are only available to customers who have purchased an Observability package. To purchase and enable this feature, contact sales@fastly.com. Once enabled, only users assigned the role of superuser or engineer can edit custom dashboards, but all account users will be able to view them.

Be sure you know how to access the web interface controls before learning about the details you'll encounter here.

About the Custom Dashboards page

The Custom Dashboards page provides a list of clickable links to all custom dashboards you've created. You can view a complete list of custom dashboards associated with your account, including the name of the user who created them and the last date on which each was updated. To access this page, go to Observability > Custom dashboards.

Clicking on each column in the displayed list will sort the entire list based on that content type. You can use the search box to search for a specific dashboard by name. You can also filter dashboards based on which user created them by selecting that name from the Created by menu.
