Table of contents Save, Subscribe and Share a Dashboard (Add to My Dashboards) You can save and share a customized dashboard, to revisit it any time in the My Dashboards menu, or you can send regular email updates of your customized dashboard to stay proactive and catch any issues before they catch you.

To save, share and subscribe, you first view a dashboard, customize it, then save it, and finally subscribe someone to regular email updates. To view the link to a dashboard, you must have a username for Aternity, so the email also includes a PDF attachment which anyone can view.
