6. Dash tiles
Transcript
Dash tiles are used to promote groups of resources. They appear on a user’s dash and can be links to collections, search results (that update as resources are added or removed from the system) or reports and analytics about system usage.
The dash is completely configurable and administrators can choose the tiles they’d like to appear for certain user groups. Individual users, assuming they have the necessary permissions, can also make their own dash tiles, just for them.
To publish a collection on the dash you can select ‘Create new dash tile’ from the ‘Actions’ menu - here. Then you can choose a cover image, add some descriptive text and decide who you’d like to see it.
To create a dash tile that links to a search, run your search and then select ‘Save to dash tile’ from the ‘Actions’ drop down - here. Since this tile links to a dynamic search the system will choose the cover image for you.
