Add Widgets to a Report

Required profiles: Analytics user or superuser

In Borealis, widgets determine what information is displayed in a report. If you need to expand the range of data presented in your reports, you can do so by adding existing widgets or creating  new widgets.

Adding widgets to a report can help you to: 

  • Include new analysis elements in your report
  • Improve how your data is presented to meet new reporting needs

There are 3 ways to add widgets to a report:

  • You can create a new widget from the Widgets in Analytics
  • You can add a widget that already exists
  • You can create a widget directly from the report
