Dataphin:Create and manage dashboards

Last Updated:Jun 17, 2026

As an owner, view your published analytical reports in the dashboard consumption channel, and create and manage Quick BI dashboards in Dataphin.

Prerequisites

  • The asset consumption value-added service has been purchased and the asset consumption module is enabled for the current tenant.

  • Before you use the dashboard feature, initialize the consumption channel. For more information, see Create and manage consumption channels.

Limits

  • To consume a table in the BI channel, the data source cluster must have network connectivity with the Dataphin cluster.

  • You cannot create Quick BI analysis tasks if the Hive data source is CDH 5.x Hive 1.1.0 or the MySQL data source is MySQL 5.1.43.

  • If full table scans are disabled in Dataphin, you must use a set statement to allow them when you create a Dataphin data source in Quick BI. This prevents SQL runtime errors. The statement is: set oneservice.allow.full.scan=true.

  • If a dashboard uses a composite dataset, only the snapshot value of the dataset selected on the save page is collected. You cannot collect all datasets used in the dashboard.

  • Only on-premises deployments of Quick BI V5.5.1_feature_2509 can consume data from AnalyticDB for PostgreSQL tables.

Create a dashboard

  1. On the Dataphin home page, choose Asset > Asset Consumption from the top menu bar.

  2. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Consumption > My BI Analysis. On the My BI Analysis page, click the Quick BI Dashboard tab, and then click Create Dashboard to open the Create Quick BI Analysis dialog box.

  3. In the Create Quick BI Analysis dialog box, configure the parameters.

    Parameter

    Description

    Analysis Task Type

    Click Expand Details for a detailed description.

    Associate Asset

    Select the table assets for which you want to create analysis tasks. You can search by name, filter by source, and select multiple assets.

    Workspace

    If the consumption channel has a default workspace and you have management permissions for it, the system automatically populates this field. Otherwise, select a workspace for which you have management permissions. To create a workspace, see Create and Manage Workspaces.

    Dataset

    If a dataset exists for the selected asset in the chosen workspace, its name is displayed. Otherwise, a dataset is automatically created before the analysis task. You can specify a name for the new dataset.

  4. Click OK to validate the configuration.

  5. After the configuration is validated, the creation flow for an analysis task starts (create data source, create dataset, create Quick BI dashboard). You are then automatically redirected to the dashboard creation page on the Quick BI platform for further configuration. For more information, see Create a Dashboard.

View dashboards

  1. The Quick BI Dashboard tab lists the dashboards that you own and have published. The list includes the dashboard name, publication status, and BI workspace.

  2. You can search for a dashboard by its name or filter dashboards by publication status or workspace.

  3. In the Operations column for the target dashboard, you can perform the following actions:
