Dashboard Menu and Groups
Items within the 'Dashboard' menu can be grouped to facilitate navigation.
- Create a Dashboard Group by navigating to Designer Dashboards Dashboard Menu and Groups.
- Add a descriptive Group Name
- Select the Dashboards which should be part of this Group (a Dashboard can be part of multiple Groups)
- Save changes and run a Publish.
- Restart Tomcat.
Dashboard Groups will be displayed in alphabetical order amongst Dashboards which have not been added to a Group.
Pentaho dashboards (CTools and Analyzer) can be added to folders with the same name as those created within the Web Application.
- Navigate to User Console Dashboards
- Create folders within the Dashboards folder and use the same names as created in the Web Application in Dashboard Menu and Groups
- Move the Pentaho dashboards to the folders.
- Where possible they will be merged into existing folders in the Web Application.

Important:
If existing dashboards are moved into new folders, it is important to note:
- Links on dashboards will need to be re-configured if the target dashboard has moved.
- It is common for CTools dashboards to refer to external files (like CSS and JS) stored in the repository by a relative path - if a CTools dashboard is moved into a new folder, the relative path may be broken and may need to be reconfigured.
- Do not use special characters such as '&' in menu group names.
