Share a Dashboard

Dashboards are built to be seen. There are three ways people can view a dashboard:

  1. Workspace members - dashboards are part of your workspace, so workspace members can see them automatically
  2. Specific users - share the dashboard with individual users you choose
  3. Public link - anyone with the link can view the dashboard

Sharing Options

Click the Share button on the dashboard toolbar to open the Share dialog, then choose a privacy level:

OptionWho can view
Private - not sharedOnly you and your workspace members
Share with specific usersOnly the users you specify
PublicAnyone with the link

When sharing with specific users, add each user and they will see the dashboard when they log in to InstaCharts with that email address.

Once a dashboard is shared, the Share dialog provides a full-page link to the live dashboard. Send this to anyone who should view the dashboard in their browser.

Because the dashboard stays connected to its sheets, shared and embedded dashboards always show the current data; viewers never see a stale copy.

A shared dashboard as viewers see it; the widgets stay live as the underlying sheets update

Stopping a Share

To stop sharing a dashboard, open the Share dialog and set the privacy level back to Private - not shared. Existing links will no longer work.
