Dashboards give you a "big picture" view of related information by displaying related charts together in one place.
In AVEVA Historian Client Web, you can create and share dashboards.

Tip: Select a chart to see a more detailed view. You can also show or contact the content owner.

About keywords and dashboards
Keywords can be added to charts. Then you can use those keywords to identify which charts you want to group together in a single dashboard.
For example, if you saved several charts related to your Seattle operations and tagged them all with the keyword "seattle", you could easily search for that keyword and view all your saved content on one page.
Use multiple keywords to make your dashboard more specific. For example, to create a dashboard of charts related specifically to power operations in Seattle, you would enter this in the Search field (assuming charts have been created with related keywords):
power seattle
The resulting dashboard will show only those charts and grids that are marked with both those keywords:

If you save a dashboard, then add that dashboard’s keyword(s) to other charts, those
charts will not be automatically added to the saved dashboard. However, when you view
the dashboard, a prompt will appear at the bottom of the page that there is additional
content that matches the chart’s keywords. Select ADD CONTENT to add the new charts to the dashboard.
If you remove a keyword from a chart that is part of a saved dashboard, it won’t be removed automatically from the dashboard.
Once a dashboard has been created, you can add or remove any chart to it, regardless of keywords.
