Share a dashboard
Your Adobe Workfront administrator grants users access to view or edit dashboards when they assign access levels. For more information about granting access to issues, see Grant access to reports, dashboards, and calendars.
Along with the access level that users are granted, you can also grant them permissions to View or Manage specific dashboards that you have access to share. For more information about access levels and permissions, see How access levels and permissions work together.
Permissions are specific to one item in Workfront and define what actions one can take on that item.

Considerations about sharing dashboards
In addition to the considerations below, also see Share reports, dashboards, and calendars.
-
The creator of a dashboard has Manage permissions to it, by default.
-
You can share dashboards that you create with other individuals, teams, groups, job roles, or companies. You can also share dashboards others created and which were shared with you.
-
You can also share them with your entire organization by making it visible system-wide.
-
You can share an individual dashboard, or you can share multiple dashboards from a list.
-
When you share a dashboard, users inherit View permissions to all the reports objects on the dashboard, by default.
For more information about the hierarchy of objects in Workfront, see Understand objects in Adobe Workfront.
For information about viewing inherited permissions, see View inherited permissions on objects.
