Navigating the Dashboard

Read your dashboard at a glance, and customise the stats and widgets to suit you.

The Dashboard is your home page. It greets you by name and summarises the health of your screens, schedules, storage and campaigns. It refreshes itself every 30 seconds.

The dashboard

A row of stat cards across the top. Each is clickable and many show a small trend.

Ad ManagerRunning campaigns (if your plan includes it).

StorageStorage used against your plan.

Customising the dashboard

  • Stats chooses and orders the stat cards.
  • Add widget opens the widget catalogue.
  • Drag a widget by its header to move it, and pull its bottom-right corner to resize (on larger screens).
  • Remove a widget with its ✕ (you must keep at least one).
  • Reset to default restores the original layout.
  • Save layout applies your changes, or Cancel (or Esc) to discard.

Your layout is saved to your account and follows you between devices. On small screens widgets stack in one column.

The bell in the top bar shows how many screens need attention, grouped into Offline, Stale and System. Click one to open that screen. See Screen Health.
