Add note cards

Usage analytics dashboards offer many ways to review the data collected by Coveo Usage Analytics (Coveo UA)(see Review and manage dashboards).

You can, among other things, add note cards to dashboards to highlight important elements in existing cards, such as statistics that require attention or configuration change histories, or to warn users.

Add Note cards in usage analytics dashboards

  1. In an existing dashboard, access Edit mode by clicking Edit in the upper-right corner.

    In a new dashboard, the report is in Edit mode by default (see Add dashboards).

  2. In a section, click Add card to section to access the Add a Card dialog.

    You can also duplicate an existing card with the Duplicate icon Duplicate, and then only modify what needs to be different (see Duplicate a Dashboard Element).

  3. In the Add a Card dialog:

    1. Select Note.

      You can create a note card warnings users to not modify a specific card configuration.

      UA-NoteCardEx

    2. In the first input, enter a meaningful Card title.

      When you leave the input empty and save the dashboard, the card title will be Note.

    3. In the Note input, enter a comment, an explanation, or a warning in plain text or using Markdown syntax (see Basic Syntax).

      • Tables

      • Images

      • Block quotes

      • Headers

      • Paragraph
