Adding Comments to a Dashboard

Adding comments to a dashboard helps you store important explanations about it and convey your message and information regarding the dashboard to other users.
You can add comments to a dashboard in both the View Mode and the Edit Mode.
To add comments to a dashboard, follow the steps given below.

    You can specifically mention a user in the comment.

    Notes:

    • Comments on dashboards currently do not support non-ASCII characters and some special characters like forward-slash, backward slash, and double inverted commas (" ").
    • If any of these characters are present in the comment, they will be replaced with a single blank space.
    • You can also use different formatting options that are available to format your comment.
    • When mentioning a user in a comment, ensure that the user has access to the tenant where the dashboard is created.


  4. Click the Send  icon.

    Similarly, When you mention someone in the comment, that specific person will receive an email regarding the comment.
