Publishing a shared dashboard tab

Once you have shared a dashboard tab, you must publish that tab to the resources you want to share it with. If you have not yet shared the dashboard, refer to Managing shared tabs.

When you publish a dashboard tab, the tab is added to the personal dashboard tabs of all resources that fall within the publication options you select. Resources that do not fall within the selected publish options will not see the tab.

NOTE  Shared dashboards respect resource security levels. Each resource's shared tab will display only the data the resource has security level permission to access.

There are three publication categories. You can select as many options from each category as you choose:

• Security Levels publishes the dashboard to all resources with the selected security levels
• Departments publishes to all resources assigned to the selected departments
• Resources publishes to each selected resource

You can change the publication options at any time.

To publish a tab, do the following:

NOTE  If you just shared a dashboard and clicked Publish this dashboard, you can skip to the image and descriptions under step 2.

1. To open the page, use the path(s) in the Security and navigation section above.
2. On the Manage Shared Dashboards page, locate the tab and select Publish from the context menu. The Publish Tab - {tab name} page will open.

The Published To tab is selected. This tab shows all current publication settings.
