# Create an Insights Explorer view

# Create an Insights Explorer view {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated March 12, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
You can create a custom view in the Insights Explorer that saves any metric charts
that were added to the canvas, and any added configuration items. After you create a view,
you can share a link to the view.

## Before you begin

Role required: TSOM Assurance admin

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllEvent ManagementMetricsInsights Explorer.
2. Click Create View (![]()), and enter a Name in the Create New View dialog box.  
   If you are already creating a view, then you can choose Create With Existing to load an existing view to work with rather than starting with a blank canvas.
3. Click Create.
4. Add items to be included in the view:
   1. Drag metrics and create charts on the canvas.
   2. Add configuration items.

   While modifying a view, it is automatically saved every time you update it. The time settings are not saved in views, and when a saved view is loaded, its time period is always set to Last hour displaying current information.

## What to do next

* Share a view: Click Share View (![]()), and then in the Share dialog box, click Copy Link. Send or paste the link to make it accessible to whoever you want to share the view with. A shared link captures the time range of the view, the charts that were added to the canvas, and any added configuration items.
* Display a saved view: Open the Select a Saved View drop down list, and select a previously saved view that you want to display.
