Overview

A dashboard is a tool in Corezoid designed for collecting and visualizing statistics and reports related to Processes and State Diagrams. Dashboards present data in the form of charts, allowing users to gain insights from the data visually. The charts, in turn, use data from nodes of built Processes and State Diagrams. The tasks in these nodes (counters) serve as the source of data (metrics) of the charts.

    Note: You can import a dashboard from a json file that contains a folder with a dashboard and related processes and charts.To do so, in the dropdown list, select From file and then choose the file from your device.

The Real-Time mode works only for the End node where the tasks are accumulated and for the Waiting for Callback, Delay and Set State nodes (in a State Diagram) where the tasks are delayed for the time specified in the Process. Nodes of other types do not accumulate tasks, resulting in empty chart data when the Real-Time mode is selected.
