Dashboards

Compose your own dashboards from a 13-widget library and pin one as the org default. Dashboards are owned by the organization — anyone with the right role sees the same set.

System Presets

Four presets ship out of the box. Presets are read-only — you can clone any preset to create your own dashboard, but the originals never change. Presets are served from memory and are never persisted to the database.

Preset	Audience	Default widgets
`executive`	Leadership	Stat cards, cost trend, cost reports, budget health, top costly resources, recommendations
`engineering`	Engineering teams	Stat cards, cost trend, cost reports, recommendations, schedule activity, schedule success rate
`finops`	Finance partners	Stat cards, cost trend, cost reports, budget health, top costly resources, recommendations, schedule activity, schedule success rate
`all_widgets`	Everyone	Stat cards, cost trend, cost reports, top costly resources, budget health, recommendations, schedule activity, schedule success rate. The fallback when no org default is set.

Widget library

Every dashboard is a layout over the same 13 widgets. Each widget declares its required policy and is rendered through an error boundary — a widget you can't see, or a widget that throws, becomes a placeholder instead of unmounting the page.

Widget type	What it shows	Required policy
`stat_cards`	Resources, spend, savings, and savings rate at a glance	`report:view`
`cost_trend`	Daily and accumulated cost over time	`report:view`
`cloud_spend`	Spend split by cloud provider	`report:view`
`cost_reports`	Providers, teams, and tags in one tabbed card	`report:view`
`top_costly`	Highest-cost resources this period	`report:view`
`recommendations`	Top open recommendations by potential monthly savings	`recommendation:view`
`quick_insights`	Top open recommendations as scannable cards	`recommendation:view`
`budget_health`	Budget utilisation by team or group	`budget:view`
`showback`	Cost attribution by team or tag	`report:view`
`schedule_execution`	Recent schedule runs and failures	`state-history:view`
`upcoming_actions`	Scheduled starts and stops in the next window	`schedule:view`
`schedule_activity`	Past schedule runs and upcoming actions in one tabbed card	`state-history:view`
`schedule_success_rate`	Success rate for scheduled start/stop runs	`report:view`

Bounds

Bound	Limit	On exceed
Dashboards per org	`50`	409 on create
Widgets per dashboard	`50`	400 on save
Widget config size	`4 KiB`	400 on save
Layout payload size	`64 KiB`	400 on save
Name uniqueness	`Per-org (active rows)`	409 on create or rename

RBAC

Four policies gate dashboard operations:

dashboard:view — read dashboards and presets
dashboard:create — create new dashboards (counts against the org's 50-dashboard quota)
dashboard:update — rename, edit layout, change widgets, set default
dashboard:delete — delete a user-created dashboard (presets are immutable)

API

List dashboards

GET

/dashboards

List dashboards visible to the caller, plus the org's default-dashboard pointer.

Query: ?limit=20&offset=0&sort_by=name&sort_order=asc. limit defaults to 50 (max 100). sort_by is created_at (default), updated_at, or name. sort_order defaults to desc. The four presets always come first, with isSystem: true.

Layouts are trimmed to one widget and only two of the four presets are shown below.

Get dashboard

GET

/dashboards/{id}

Get a dashboard by id. Preset keys are served from memory; UUIDs hit the dashboards table.

Create dashboard

POST

/dashboards

Create a new user-owned dashboard. Cloning a preset is a client-side operation: GET the preset, give its widgets new ids, POST.

Requestjson

{
  "name": "Platform Team",
  "description": "Spend and schedules for the platform team",
  "layout": {
    "version": 1,
    "widgets": [
      { "id": "w1", "type": "stat_cards", "size": "full", "order": 0 },
      { "id": "w2", "type": "cost_trend", "size": "half", "order": 1, "config": {} }
    ]
  }
}

layout.version must be 1. Each widget needs a unique id, a known type, and a size of full, half, or third. order values must run 0, 1, 2, … with no gaps. titleOverride (max 128 characters) and config are optional.

Update dashboard

PATCH

/dashboards/{id}

Partial update — name, description, or layout. A sent layout replaces the old one whole. An empty body returns 400. PATCH on a preset id returns 405.

Set default dashboard

PUT

/dashboards/default

Set the org's default dashboard. Pointer lives in org_settings under key default_dashboard.

Requestjson

{ "id": "executive" }

Send { "id": "" } to clear the pointer — frontend falls back to all_widgets.

Delete dashboard

DELETE

/dashboards/{id}

Delete a user-owned dashboard. Preset keys return 405. If the deleted dashboard is the org default, the pointer is cleared right after the delete.

Tenant cascade

Deleting an organization soft-deletes all of its dashboards via the organisation cascade — no orphaned rows.

See Roles & Permissions for how dashboard policies compose with the rest of the policy table.
