Baserow Dashboards overview

Baserow’s Dashboards module provides a powerful way to visualize and analyze your data, offering flexible ways to monitor trends, track metrics, and present information clearly to different stakeholders.

This section covers how to use Dashboards in Baserow and create insightful visualizations that meet your needs.

Widgets

The Dashboards feature allows you to create visual representations of your data through various widgets, making it easier to understand trends and make data-driven decisions.

Widgets are the building blocks of dashboards that shape how your data is visualized.

Currently available widgets include:

Summary widget

Displays key metrics like totals, averages, and counts for quick insights at a glance.

Bar chart widget

Shows data as bar charts or line charts with up to three series per chart, perfect for comparing values and tracking changes over time. You can choose between bar and line series depending on how you want to visualize your data trends.

Pie chart widget

Displays data as slices of a circle to represent proportions of a whole. Pie charts are ideal for showing how individual categories contribute to the total. Each slice is sized based on its value, making it easy to compare relative shares at a glance.

Doughnut chart widget

Similar to pie charts but with a hollow center, doughnut charts visualize proportions while leaving space in the middle for additional context (such as totals or labels). They are useful for highlighting part-to-whole relationships while maintaining a clean, modern look.

Customization options

Each widget can be customized with:

• Unique titles and descriptions
• Specific data sources
• Grouping options
• Sorting preferences

Data integration

Dashboards automatically update when your Baserow tables change, ensuring your visualizations always reflect the latest data. You can combine data from multiple databases or tables in a single dashboard for comprehensive analysis.
