For Splunk AppDynamics Users

If you have set up default view permissions to custom dashboards, any user who is logged in to the Controller can view a custom dashboard.

Users can also be granted view, edit,share, and delete permissions on specific dashboards.

The Dashboards Viewer predefined role has permissions to view custom dashboards. You can grant this role to users or groups who need access to custom dashboards. SeeCustom Dashboard Permissionsfor details.

For the Public

Sharing a Controller-level custom dashboard makes the dashboard available to viewers who do not have Splunk AppDynamics accounts.

If the dashboard is shared, anyone who has been sent a direct link to the dashboard URL can view it. If someone has the URL and the dashboard is not shared or no longer shared, they see a message that the resource is not available when they try to access that URL.

To control Controller-level custom dashboard sharing, clickShareon the menu of the custom dashboard configuration.

There is no comparable sharing mechanism for external viewers without Controller credentials to access tier- and node-level custom dashboards based on templates. To access these types of dashboards, the user must be logged in to the Controller and have custom dashboard view permissions on the specific dashboard.

The availability of sharing mechanism is now controlled by the Sharepermission of the user.

Simplify the Data Displayed

If a chart in a custom dashboard is displaying more data than you want, click the legend for the data that you want to remove from the chart. You can click the greyed-out legend to restore the display.
