Subscribe to a dashboard

To keep up with your dashboards, both your own and the preset ones, you can subscribe to them. By subscribing to a dashboard, you'll receive an email or a Slack message with a snapshot of the dashboard and a link to the dashboard in the DoiT console. This way, you get more visibility to changes and become faster to proactively respond to them.

Create a dashboard subscription

To create a dashboard subscription:

1. Sign in to the DoiT console and select Dashboards from the top navigation bar.

2. From the left-hand pane, select the dashboard you want to schedule automated delivery.

3. Select Subscribe in the upper-right corner of the dashboard.

   

   You'll see a list of current subscriptions and an option to create a new one.

4. Select Create new subscription and configure it.

   

   • Email addresses: Email addresses of the intended recipients. The email addresses must be in your organization's domain.

   • Slack channels: If you have created a shared Slack channel with DoiT or installed the DoiT app for Slack in your workspace, you can choose one or more Slack channels to receive the dashboard snapshot.

   • Timing: The start date of the subscription and the time (hour:minute, timezone) of delivery.

   • Delivery frequency: The frequency of delivery: Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Annually, or Custom.

5. Save the configuration.
