Enable your users to display, customize, and share dashboards in CSM Configurable Workspace and use these dashboards as landing pages.
Workspace dashboards enable users such as agents and managers to configure and customize their own metrics. These users can switch between available dashboards and modify dashboard lists and metrics to track important
information. They can also share dashboards with coworkers and across teams.

To display workspace dashboards, system administrators activate the [CSM Dashboards](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/eiGuYHu044IBBQKzPsrTTw#csm-ws-landing-page-dashboard__section_bhb_2n4_4xb) landing page variant and configure user privileges. When configured, users included in the page audience see the Dashboard Overview landing page
in CSM Configurable Workspace and the [default dashboards](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/eiGuYHu044IBBQKzPsrTTw#csm-ws-landing-page-dashboard__section_vny_jwb_4xb) included with that page.

The dashboards are represented by tiles on the Dashboard Overview landing page. The individual tiles show the title, the creator, whether the dashboard is certified, and an indication that the logged in user has bookmarked the
dashboard.

## Benefits of dashboard landing pages {#csm-ws-landing-page-dashboard__section_tm3_ywb_4xb}

Using a dashboard as a landing page gives your users more flexibility. Being able to easily customize a dashboard makes the page much more usable. Users can create their own lists and metrics to display the information they need
and then share these dashboards with other users. As an example, teams can share a single dashboard or new agents can modify a shared dashboard to create their own. It is much faster to create dashboards because they do not
require configuration by a system administrator.

## Application information {#csm-ws-landing-page-dashboard__section_qk3_nm4_4xb}

The CSM Dashboards landing page variant is included with the CSM and FSM Configurable Workspace Foundation plugin (com.snc.uib.cwf_workspace).

The CSM Configurable Workspace application, which includes the CSM and FSM Configurable Workspace plugin, is available from the ServiceNow® Store.  
The default dashboards available with this landing page variant are available depending on [user role](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/eiGuYHu044IBBQKzPsrTTw#csm-ws-landing-page-dashboard__section_qk3_nm4_4xb). Some of these dashboards require additional plugins to see all of the dashboard information. These plugins include:

* Performance Analytics - Content Pack - Customer Service (com.snc.pa.customer_service)
* Performance Analytics -- Content Pack -- Customer Service Management -- Advanced (com.snc.pa.customer_service_advanced)
* Performance Analytics Premium for Customer Service (com.snc.pa.premium.cs)
* Performance Analytics - Content Pack -- Advanced Work Assignment (com.snc.pa.awa)

## Request apps on the Store {#csm-ws-landing-page-dashboard__section_xfg_tgm_2tb}

Visit the [ServiceNow Store](https://store.servicenow.com/sn_appstore_store.do#!/store/home) website to view all the available apps and for information about submitting requests to the store.

## Activating the CSM Dashboards landing page variant {#csm-ws-landing-page-dashboard__section_bhb_2n4_4xb}

The CSM Dashboards landing page variant is an optional page variant for the CSM/FSM Configurable Workspace experience. By default, this page variant is marked as inactive and has an order value of 0. When activated and set to the lowest order number, the system uses the CSM Dashboards landing page in place of the default [CSM Landing Page](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/AFSl959cPVg9ktLvBdJ5dw "The CSM Landing Page provides users with lists of assigned cases and case tasks as well as agent, group, and organization metrics.") for the users included in the page audience.  
Note:  
The default landing page, Dashboard Overview, and the [default dashboards](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/eiGuYHu044IBBQKzPsrTTw#csm-ws-landing-page-dashboard__section_vny_jwb_4xb) included with that page are available in read-only mode and are provided as examples. It is recommended that you create and customize duplicates of the landing page and dashboards.

For more information about activating a page variant and setting the order, see [Set record page order](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/LGGOhBrsIJ~WE1qtGSWH8g "Set the order number of a record page and activate the record page to determine the default page for displaying records in CSM Configurable Workspace.").

## User roles for the Dashboard Overview landing page {#csm-ws-landing-page-dashboard__section_vdw_xk4_4xb}

By default, the Dashboard Overview landing page is available to users with the following roles:

* admin
* sn_customerservice_agent

{#csm-ws-landing-page-dashboard__ul_vtm_1wb_4xb}  
Note:  
Users with other roles, such as location agents or relationship agents, continue to see the CSM Landing Page.  
The system administrator can change these default roles by configuring the page audience. For more information, see the following topics:

* [Learn about audiences](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=add-audiences&version=xanadu&pubname=xanadu-application-development&ft:locale=en-US)

## Certifying a dashboard {#csm-ws-landing-page-dashboard__section_bvd_c1c_4xb}

Users with the admin role can certify a dashboard to indicate that it is company-approved and recommended for use. The default dashboards available from the Dashboard Overview landing page are certified and admins cannot change
this setting. Admins can only certify new dashboards. For more information, see [Certify a Platform Analytics dashboard](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=certify-db-ac&version=xanadu&pubname=xanadu-now-intelligence&ft:locale=en-US).

## Working with dashboards {#csm-ws-landing-page-dashboard__section_lmc_vv4_4xb}

Agents can create their own dashboards and share those dashboards with other agents or assignment groups. For example, agents can create dashboards with metrics and lists that support specific assignments, such as a temporary
weekend assignment.  
From the Dashboard Overview landing page, managers and agents can do the following:

* View the default dashboards available for their role.
* Filter the available dashboards.
* Select a dashboard tile to display the dashboard in a new tab. If more than one dashboard is available, the user can switch between the available dashboards by making a selection from the dashboard picker.
* Duplicate and customize the default dashboards.
* View dashboard details such as the dashboard name, description, and visibility.
* Edit dashboards using a configuration panel.
* Share dashboards with other users or groups and grant edit or view-only rights.
* Create new dashboards.
* Create and share visualization elements from the [Platform Analytics Workspace](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=par-workspace&version=xanadu&pubname=xanadu-now-intelligence&ft:locale=en-US).
