Hello -
I have three Workspaces for different firms, and in each workspace I have a folder setup for each project. I want to setup a Dashboard to report on the various different projects the executives. I'd also like new folders (new projects) to automatically be added into the Dashbaord reporting.
I found that at the Workspace level, I can create a report to pull the metrics from the individual folders/projects and it will automatically add new projects/folders as they are created.
Where I'm struggling is then adding widgets to the Dashboard that I've also created at the Workspace level - when I go to add any widget outside of the report widget or chart widget, it won't allow me to pull data from my report, it wants me to select specific sheets. The problem with that is that the only way to have new project auto add to be included is to use the report function. I also can't add additional columns to the report to get totals, etc that I can then use to report on the Dashboard.
Is there someway that I can:
I want my roll-up dashboard to look similar to this (mainly the ability to the Metric widget to give number. ) I do want to use the Chart and Report widgets so it's great those work.
Hi Christina,
A solution that would be helpful for this use-case is the premium add-on, Control Center.
Is that an option?
More info:
If it's not an option there might be some workarounds to make it simpler to maintain, but not automatic.
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Andrée,
I too am interested in the same and having the same issue. We have control centre, but do we need to pay additional fees or can we just use it to create dashboards?
It depends. You can include the Dashboard creation in the Blueprint.
Make sense?
Also, have a look at the Blueprint Summary Sheet feature.
Would that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!
