Why Customizable Dashboards?​

Dynamic Data Visualization Beyond Static Reports

Instead of letting people lock themselves inside static dashboards, Anavsan provides you customizable dashboards which dynamically update your data. You can create the dashboard with widgets available in the Widgets Factory. Unlike traditional BI tools with rigid layouts, Anavsan dashboards adapt to your needs—add, remove, or rearrange widgets to focus on the metrics that matter most to your goals.

Dashboard Highlights​

  • Build custom dashboards from a library of pre-configured widgets in the Widgets Factory
  • Real-time data updates across all widgets when filters change
  • Switch between accounts and warehouses without rebuilding dashboards
  • Drag-and-drop interface for intuitive dashboard design and widget arrangement
  • Preview dashboards before saving to ensure the layout meets your needs
  • Create account-level or overall dashboards to match different reporting scopes

Step 1: Set Dashboard Scope​

Use the toggle at the top of the page to choose:

  • Account-level Dashboard - Monitor a specific Snowflake account
  • Overall Dashboard - View aggregated data across all connected accounts

Scope selection

When Account-level Dashboard is selected, two dropdowns become active:

  • Snowflake Accounts - Select which account to monitor
  • Warehouse - Select a specific warehouse (lists warehouses from the selected account)

These selections define the data context for your dashboard widgets.

Step 2: Provide Title and Description​

Enter:

  • Dashboard name
  • Dashboard description (optional)

These fields help identify dashboards in the list view.

Step 3: Sort & Filter Widgets​

The widget panel allows you to sort and filter all available widgets. Widget sort/filter
