š” Compared to the regularĀ Personal DashboardsĀ the Non-Personal Dashboard variant can be managed configured by administrators via theĀ Organization UnitĀ assignment.
BEFORE YOU START
Contact CenterĀ Please note that only Contact Center licensed users can access the Dashboards feature. As Admin you may create as many Non-Personal Dashboards as needed.
Role | Permission |
TENANT ADMIN / OU ADMIN |
Non-Personal Dashboards are managedĀ onlyĀ by administrators. Created viaĀ Administration > Configuration > Non-Personal Dashboards.Ā The configuration steps are described below on this page. |
TEAM OWNER, |
User Accounts (Service Owners, Supervisors, Agents) canĀ viewĀ Non-Personal Dashboards, but not edit them. Personal Dashboards are created via Nimbus User Portal > Dashboards. |
Creating a Non-Personal Dashboard
The creation of new Non-Personal Dashboard is very similar to that ofĀ Personal Dashboards, however with additional steps for publishing. Basically you perform the following steps:Ā
- Define general Dashboard details
- Add and configure widgets and properties
- Once ready, publish the Dashboard
- Inform Nimbus portal users to view the Dashboard
General Dashboard details
This step is nearly identical to Personal Dashboards:
- Head toĀ Configuration > Dashboard > Non-Personal DashboardsĀ andĀ clickĀ "Create New".
-
Provide the dashboard detailsĀ (Name, Description, Organization Unit, Color, Picture) in the popup.Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā
š” You can change these details later if needed. - After creation you can now see your Dashboard in the list. You can now start to edit its properties.Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
Edit Widgets and Properties
The same as on personalĀ Personal Dashboards you now add Dashboard Widgets and adjust their Widget Properties to your liking. Click on the accordions below for more details:

INC Dashboard Widget Data Size Limitations
āFILTER/QUERY SIZE LIMITATIONS
To keep the performance on Dashboards manageable, query limits of 200 users / 200 services each apply on filtering (e.g. when selecting very large Organization Units). This limit applies summed-up across all widgets on the same Dashboard.
š”A warning and counters will be shown when this limit is exceeded and data will not be queried.
š”(Existing) Dashboards that break this limit will not be adjusted retroactively, but also show the warning instead of the actual data query.

About widget access
šDashboard Access:
- Contact CenterĀ User licenses are required to view any personal DashboardsĀ orĀ non-personal Dashboards in the Nimbus UI.
- Additionally, a service-affiliated user role (e.g. member, owner) is required to see data in within widgets, following Organization Unit rules (ā see Data Access Rule below).
šSupervision / Agent Roles:
- š§ Users with additional extended permissions (Supervisors , Service/Team Owners) can interact with certain widgets, e.g. to perform Dashboard Supervision or delete pending from the queue. ā This requires an additional āSupervisorā role, to be applied via User Administration > Roles tab.
- ā Note that Supervisors which also act as Agents (assigned in Agent Service Settings)Ā cannotĀ engage in Supervision sessions while they have a call ongoing.Ā
šData Access Rule: Dashboards and data shown inside widgets follow general User PermissionĀ andĀ Organization UnitĀ restrictions, meaning:
- Data is shown according to theĀ currently logged inĀ user permissions, not any delegated permissions of the user that created the Dashboard.Ā
- Filter (re)adjustments to widgets are allowed if the user has access, but only by following "reading along the path" Organization Unit rules of that user.
š¤ What does this mean? Dashboard user B may see and customize widgets which may have been originally added by different user A (e.g. an higher level Admin). However, the Service KPI, as well as User and Task information shown inside those widgets is always limited to the services the user B is a part of.

š” Good to know: Some widgets allow to display a single KPI name in the āĀ TitleĀ field. The placeholder <KPI> will dynamically get replaced with your selected KPI. āNote: Changing KPI Units deletes thresholdsSome widgets allow to define āĀ ThresholdsĀ to react to KPI value changes with color and sound.Ā When changing your KPI Metrics (e.g. from % to flat numbers), note that:
š” Tip: If this happens to you by accident you can restore your previous threshold settings by cancelling the widget edit, which discards your changes. Ā
Ā
Ā
ā KPI values are weighted against total amountAverage calculated KPI values are weighted against the total amount of itemsĀ (e.g. Tasks, Handled Calls, Reachability, etc.) within the services specified in your widget ā Filter. š”Ā This is to ensure that - for example - a service with justĀ oneĀ failed call showing a 0% handled-rate does not negatively impact overall KPI metrics of services withĀ thousandsĀ of calls with a 99% handled-call rate. Ā
Ā
šKPI selection restricts other fieldsSelection of a KPI criteria will automatically restrict other fieldsĀ to the same type (e.g. tasks, time, percentages). Example:Ā On a comparison chart, picking any KPI of type š”This is to keep the axis reference and unit count consistent.Ā š”To show different KPIs, either start a separate widget or delete any KPI entries, switching the last entry to a different criterion (e.g. percentage, task, user, time, etc.).

Limitations
INC Dashboard Widget Data Size Limitations
āFILTER/QUERY SIZE LIMITATIONS
To keep the performance on Dashboards manageable, query limits of 200 users / 200 services each apply on filtering (e.g. when selecting very large Organization Units). This limit applies summed-up across all widgets on the same Dashboard.
š”A warning and counters will be shown when this limit is exceeded and data will not be queried.
š”(Existing) Dashboards that break this limit will not be adjusted retroactively, but also show the warning instead of the actual data query.
INC Website Embed Limitations
WEBSITE EMBEDDING LIMITATIONS
Some websites prevent IFrame embeds on remote sites, which cannot be circumvented.Ā When you try to embed such protected URLs, errors like 401 (unauthorized) or a "Refused to Connect" message will be shown instead of your desired output.
ā Possible Workarounds:
- If available, consult your external source website support to check if any iframe-referrals are allowed. Some services offer specialized data widgets for that purpose or provide authorized token-URLs that you can use.
- If you have access to whitelists on your source website, try to allow theĀ *.luware.cloud domain for external embedding / referencing.
Show more technical information...
Ā There are two types of HTTP headers in websites that control iframe loading:
X-Frame-Options: DENY
Content-Security-Policy: frame-ancestors 'none'
The HTTP Content-Security-Policy specifies valid parents that may embed a page using <frame>, <iframe>, <object>, or <embed>.
A website header calledĀ x-frame-optionsĀ specifies the access prevention, determined via the following values:Ā
- if set toĀ DENYĀ the site isn't allowed to be loaded in iframeĀ
- if set toĀ SAMEORIGINĀ the page can only be embedded in a frame on a page with the same origin as itself.
- if set toĀ ALLOW-FROMĀ the page can only be displayed in a frame on the specified origin. This only works in browsers that support this header.

NOTES ON DATA VISIBILITY AND ACCESS
- Each Non-Personal Dashboard has a creator and modification date. Note that administrators with the same level of access can also edit (and delete) any Non-Personal Dashboard. When a creator user is removed fromĀ Nimbus the creator will be shown asĀ "N/A",Ā but the board continues to exist.
- Clicking "Edit Dashboard" on any existing entry will bring you directly to Edit Mode. You can always adjust properties and filters as needed, but note that these changes apply to everyone with viewing/editing permissions on this board.
-
Filters and widgets in Dashboards are reliant based onĀ yourĀ currently logged in user account'sĀ Organization UnitĀ .
- This determines the data and visibility to other users within the same OU hierarchy.
- You willĀ notĀ see live data (such as incoming sessions, user states) on these dashboards due to data privacy reasons.

Publishing the Dashboard
As final step you can decide to make a fully configured Non-Personal Dashboard available to certain users:
- Edit your Dashboard general details and review that the correctĀ Organization Unit is set.
ā š” Users in your chosen Organization Unit and the OUs below will see the Dashboard once published. - Once satisfied make the Dashboard available, enable the "Publish" toggle.Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
Ā
Viewing the Dashboard
ā Once published by you or any other administrator all assigned users get immediate access to the new Non-Personal Dashboard, located within theirĀ DashboardĀ overview.Ā
āNote that access to Non-personal Dashboards is limitedĀ
- Only users with Portal Roles: Service user, Service Owner or Supervisor will have access to Dashboards.Ā
- Users need to be assigned to the Dashboard's Organization Unit (OU) or below.Ā This isĀ following the OU "readingĀ along the path" rules.
āNon-Personal Dashboards will only allow āviewingā, not āeditingā.Ā An icon will distinguish between Personal and Non-Personal Dashboards on theĀ DashboardĀ overview.

Known Issues and Limitations
š¤Different data visibility based on logged-in user |
Data displayed in Non-Personal Dashboard is filtered depending on the logged-in user's permission NOT based or ādelegatedā by the creating user. Effectively this means that all users see the same dashboard widget layout and settings, but different service/user data shown inside based on their own permissions. š”This is currently by design. As the creating Admin user's permissions to data might change over time, a large audience could potentially get (unwanted) access to delegated personal or service data. Nimbus will therefore always validate the current logged-in user's permission before showing data. We are actively monitoring customer feedback and consider solutions with future development. |
š¤"No data available" message shown |
If a user doesn't have the right to create Personal Dashboards ā and there is no Non-Personal dashboard made visible to them āĀ "No data available"Ā is displayed instead. š”This is by design, not considered a limitation. |
š¤No audio playback on a freshly loaded Dashboard | INC Audio playback limitationā General limitation for audio playback: Chrome (and other modern browsers) prevent Autoplay of audio, and only allow media playback if:
š¤How does this affect Nimbus? Any kind of audio signalization (threshold warnings, toasts, notifications) will not play audio on a newly (re)loaded tab that has not been interacted with. For example, when first-time loading a Personal Dashboards or Non-Personal Dashboards ā or force-refreshing any Nimbus UI with CTRL+F5 ā you need to click on it at least once for audio to play back.
