You can use a dashboard to visualize the actual situation of a metric and display the percentage of the metric. For example, you can check the inventory of a commodity. If the inventory is insufficient, you can replenish the inventory in a timely manner. This topic describes how to add data to a dashboard and configure the style.
Prerequisites
A dashboard is created. For more information, see Create a dashboard.
Limits
When you add data to a dashboard, the Pointer Angle /Metric parameter is determined by the metric of the data. You can select only one metric.
