## Adding widgets to a dashboard

Widgets are the building blocks of a dashboard. They allow you to visualize your data in different formats.

To add a widget, click **Add widget** or the **+** button in the dashboard. Select the widget type, then click on it to configure its settings and give it a title.

### Chart widget

Use a chart widget to display data in a visual format like a bar, line, or pie chart.

1. Select the desired dimensions and metrics from the **Widget data** tab in the right sidebar.
2. Choose the chart type and configure axes from the **Chart settings** tab.

### Table widget

Table widgets show your data in a tabular format.

After adding a table widget, select the dimensions and metrics you'd like to display from the right sidebar.

<Warning>
  Table widgets display up to 20 rows of data. To explore more, click the `...` menu on the widget and select **Explore in report**.
</Warning>

### KPI widget

KPI (Key Performance Indicator) widgets highlight important metrics at a glance.

After adding a KPI widget:

* Select one or more metrics in the right sidebar.
* If you add multiple metrics, they will be displayed side by side, in the order you added them.

### Text widget

Use a text widget to add explanatory notes, section headers, or descriptions directly in your dashboard.

To format the text, you can highlight the text and apply any of the available text formatting options:

* Large and small headings (H1, H2, H3)
* Bold
* Italic
* Bullets and numbered lists

## Editing dashboards

To edit an existing dashboard, open it and make your changes. Click **Save** to apply your updates. Anyone with access to the dashboard can edit it.

### Drag & drop

You can reposition any widget by dragging and dropping it.

* Hover over the widget, click and hold, then drag it to a new location.
* Blue guidelines will show where the widget will be placed when released.

### Resize widgets

You can also resize the widget by clicking on the resize handle and dragging it to the desired size.

* To **adjust the width**, drag the left or right border of the widget. If there are other widgets in the same row, their size will adjust automatically to make space for the resized widget.
* To **adjust the height**, drag the top or bottom border of the widget. If there are other widgets in the same column, their height will also be adjusted.

## Deleting dashboards

To delete a dashboard, click `...` next to the dashboard you want to delete and select **Delete**.

Only the owner of the dashboard can delete it.
