Grid card

The grid card allows you to show multiple cards in a grid. It will first fill the columns, automatically adding new rows as needed.

To add the grid card to your user interface:

  1. In the top right of the screen, select the three dots menu and then select Edit dashboard.
    • By editing the dashboard, you are taking over control of this dashboard. This means that it is no longer automatically updated when new dashboard elements become available. To continue, in the dialog, select Take control.
  2. In the bottom right corner, select the Add card button and select from the card picker.

All options for this card can be configured via the user interface.
