Adding images and color to dashboards

tabpws — Fri, 12 Jul 2024 03:43:22 GMT

Does anyone know how to achieve a dashboard like this where we can add an image and background colour? I am finding the dashboards looking pretty bland so something like this would spice it up a little. I have added emojis but just cant see how to add an image so any helpful ideas will be good.

OK, so I discovered that if you want to add images you need to have a URL to that image. If you are lucky the image will already have a URL link when you right click on the image. Dynatrace does not store the image but as for having colored fonts or backgrounds you need to use thresholds.

Go to your Dashboard (not classic) and select visualise > thresholds (looks like can only be done on Table/Single value.

As an example to start you off, can use javascript code to create a header

// HELLO WORLD SAMPLE-1
export default async function () {
return "Hello, world!";
}

Hi,

I am not sure if Dyntrace allow you this.

As a workarround, you can always use Gimp, or another image editor, for tweak images and uploaded it to dashboard.
