Dashboards contain data visualizations, filters, and other visual elements. Users can share dashboards with other users, groups, or roles to create a shared view of data.") that you have permission to access by navigating to AllPlatform AnalyticsLibraryDashboards. You can filter what dashboards are listed, for example seeing only dashboards you own or you have bookmarked. You can also directly access Dashboards from the filter navigation in Platform Analytics library pages. Library pages like this one include a navigation pane that provides access to the other libraries and the Usage Insights page. Use it to navigate between the libraries without interrupting your workflow. For information on role-based access for the filter navigation pane and Platform Analytics overview page, see [Roles applicable for Platform Analytics overview page](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/N96NjeUh7zVlTMfFE4MNOA#analytics-center__table_a12_23s_k3c). For more information on Dashboards library, see [Dashboards in the library](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/eJOChCUtWqKpFLyY4QwVVg "Use Platform Analytics dashboards to access, organize, and share data in a visual format. Dashboards contain data visualizations, filters, and other visual elements."). ## Dashboards for analytics admins {#ac-elements__section_hwf_kwj_kfc} The configuration of the Dashboards page and the data access depends on the user roles. Users without admin roles have limited capabilities, as compared to the analytics admins. The analytics admins can perform actions such as deactivating, activating, deleting, or creating categories. For Dashboards, the applicable roles are dashboard_admin, platform_analytics_admin, and admin. The lowest role required is dashboard_admin. For more information on all dashboard roles, see table [Dashboard roles](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/9DexzqdJbtnHOvqfQwdBqg#platform-analytics-roles__table_d1r_2vc_k2c). On Brazil instances, you can find both Core UI dashboards and Platform Analytics experience dashboards in the Dashboards library. For more information, see [Dashboards for analytics admins](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/oKI2oCh4N_lfrnSbIzUjbA "Use Platform Analytics dashboards to access, organize, and share data in a visual format. Dashboards contain data visualizations, filters, and other visual elements."). For more information on the types of admin roles in Platform Analytics, see [Platform Analytics roles](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/9DexzqdJbtnHOvqfQwdBqg "Platform Analytics has both unique roles and roles from other applications that apply to it."). ## Dashboards components {#ac-elements__section_ckn_ztc_3zb} When you open a dashboard, you can view the components.Figure 1.

This control hides or shows that container and its contents. | | 11 | Filter | In this example dashboard, there is a filter in a container above the tabs. Because it is outside the tabs, it applies to the contents of all tabs. For more information, see [Create or add a filter on an inline dashboard](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/KHmaarKHkKSH6JVfaJk3Lw "Create a filter or select one from the filter library. When creating a filter, name it, and choose whether to create a single select, multiple select, date, or true/false filter."). | | 12 | [Tabs](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/mShtAtHrVm3EJvKCaOxvbQ#gloss-tab "A named section within a dashboard used to organize related content.
