Table of contents Create Your Own Dashboard from Multiple Data Sources (Advanced) Use Create Your Own Dashboard option (previously called Analyze Multiple Data Sources (Advanced)) to build a dashboard that includes widgets from multiple data sources in order to provide a holistic view that correlates between data of different types. For example, understand the impact of OS version on applications performance, or analyze number of crashes and resource utilization in a single view. When working with Multi Data Sources dashboard, be aware of the following: The Aggregation Type drop-down menu exists only on the first sheet of the Multi-Data Sources dashboard, but also affects all other sheets, even though they might use different data sources for which the actual retentions might be different for the same aggregation type. Whenever the available data does not fit the retention described in the parentheses of the selected aggregation type, learn about actual retention of the data source you are using in the Understanding Retention Policies in Aternity article. ProcedureStep 1 Open a browser and sign in to Aternity. Step 2 Select Main Menu > Analyze > Create Your Own Dashboard. Select what kind of data you want to analyze Step 3 Select a data source for the first widget and click Go. Starting with a blank dashboard, you can add widgets (sheets) one at a time, where each widget links to a different data source, like Applications or Device Health. This allows viewing data from different sources side by side. This article details how to create a dashboard(s) containing data from multiple sources.

Step 4 Customize the dashboard by dragging measures and dimensions to the Columns and Rows bar, so that you can compare specific attributes. Both attributes and measures are now arranged in one folder. Attributes are marked with Abc, whereas measures with special symbols. See the folder structure of dimensions (attributes) and measures in advanced dashboards Drag measures and dimensions to the Columns and Rows fields in the top bar Step 5 To display a filter of this value in the right pane of the dashboard, hover over the attribute, open its drop-down menu, and select Show Filter. Alternatively, drag this attribute to the Filters section. Add filter for further correlation of data Tip Be mindful of the TopByUsageParam parameter when using the Applications data source as this can prevent all data from showing on the dashboard. In the left pane, under Parameters, right-click TopByUsageParam and then select Add to Sheet. Then in the right-pane, under Add to Sheet, select All Applications since sometimes MS Visio or MS Project may not be the top usage applications.
