Is there a way of displaying an existing PA Dashboard inside an existing Workplace?

I want to be able to show a PA Dashboard (with its existing widgets/metrics) inside a Workplace (Now Experience), so that whenever the PA Dashboard is updated, so too is the Workplace. Both the dashboard and the workplace already exist independently. I saw that it's possible to use Viewport, but I am unable to display the PA Dashboard because the root is different. Has anyone found a way to make this work without adding a brand new PA tab to the Workplace, or is the best option to recreate the same dashboard inside the workplace (and update both when one of them changes)?

Hi PCRP

Unfortunately there isnt a clean way to embed an existing PA Dashboard directly into a Workplace and have it stay in sync.

PA Dashboards and Workplace Now Experience are built on different UI frameworks, so things like Viewport or iframe-style embedding don’t work reliably. That’s why you’re running into the “different root” issue  its a platform limitation, not something you’re missing.

What most teams end up doing is recreating the dashboard layout inside the Workplace using PA components, pointing them at the same indicators. That way:

  • The data stays in sync automatically

  • You only maintain the metrics once

  • You’re just duplicating the layout not the logic

The other option is adding a dedicated PA tab in the Workplace, which does keep everything in sync but it sounds like youre trying to avoid that.

So in practice: yes, rebuilding the dashboard in the Workplace is the best and most supported approach today. It’s not ideal, but it’s stable and upgrade-safe.
