Your first dashboard

Open the composer

Go to Dashboards and select Create dashboard.

Describe what you want to monitor

Write one prompt that says what you want to track, for which period, and what you want to compare it with. Write it the way you would brief a colleague:

Monthly revenue and gross margin for the last 6 months, compared with the same months last year, broken down by product category.

The more specific the question, the more useful the metrics Nalar proposes.

Choose who builds it

The Agent selector starts on Auto. Auto picks the narrowest Agent whose data can cover your request. It doesn't widen the request to the Master Agent on its own.

You can also pick one Agent yourself, including the Master Agent if you have access to it. The Agent you choose limits which data Nalar may use for this dashboard.

The composer also offers a version choice, with V2 selected. If you see other versions besides V1 and V2, keep the default unless your workspace admin tells you otherwise. V2 lays the dashboard out as charts, KPI tiles, and tables without long written explanations. V1 uses the earlier layout, which includes written findings and notes. The version is saved with the dashboard and never changes when you open it later.

Preview the metrics

Select Preview metrics. Nalar shows its progress as it works, then the metrics it proposes.

For each metric you can see what it means, where its data comes from, and its period and comparison period. When Nalar could check the value, it shows the value and the change next to the metric. When it couldn't, it shows no number at all rather than a placeholder.

The preview also tells you which parts of your question are covered by a metric and which aren't. Anything Nalar can't support is listed as a gap. Nalar doesn't swap in a different metric or quietly change what you asked for.

Review the list

Before you create the dashboard, you can:

• rename a metric so its name reads the way your team talks about it
• reorder the metrics
• remove a metric you don't need
• open a metric to inspect its details

To change the question itself, edit the prompt and select Preview metrics again. Any change to the prompt needs a new preview before you can create the dashboard.

Create the dashboard

Select Create dashboard. Nalar checks your access once more, lays out the page from the verified data, and saves one dashboard that you own. It starts private: only you can see it until you share it.

The saved dashboard keeps the metric names, order, and definitions you reviewed. If Nalar could support only part of your request, the dashboard shows the verified part and says what it doesn't cover.
