Dashboards begin as a blank canvas, but take shape as you add informative, interactive widgets to them.
USM Content
The Add Widget panel provides a brief description of each widget's function.

Metric widget
Use the metric widget to display content from one or more cells in a sheet. You need at least Editor permissions on the source sheet from which you want to display information.

Chart widget
The chart widget displays real-time data in a dashboard from a table on your sheet. You need at least Editor permissions on the source sheet from which you want to display information. Several chart types are available:
- Line
- Smooth line
- Stepped line
- Bar
- Stacked bar
- Colum
- Stacked column
- Pie
- Donut
- Scatter
Explore the one that best suits your needs. Here is an example of a couple of them:

Shortcut widget
With the shortcut widget, create a link or a list of links to specific URLs, files, or Smartsheet items.

Rich text widget
Use a rich text widget to add any text string you want to use for titles, instructions, updates, or any other type of text.
Report widget
The report widget allows you to display a report in your dashboard, but you need at least Admin access to the source report. Users shared to the dashboard don't always need access to the underlying sheets to see the report content.

Image widget
Use an image widget to add a company logo, employee photos, or other images to your dashboard.
Title widget
With the title widget, you can name your dashboard and better organize your widgets under various headings.
Web content widget
Use the web content widget to add interactive content to your dashboard, such as Tableau charts, Smartsheet Forms, YouTube videos, and more. However, you need access to the source application to do so.
