Feature: The dashboard layout is a customizable container for data visualization tools.
Use: Set up the dashboard with a layout that helps users quickly interact with relevant data organized by widgets and variables.
Prerequisites
Admins can disable, enable, or limit user access to the dashboard layout tool at the group level. To view or edit permissions, open the Permissions Manager page, select a group, click the Dashboards tab, and expand the General tab.
