Dashboards

Reading a dashboard, what each built-in widget counts, and where a click on a widget takes you.

A dashboard is a page of widgets: tiles, lists, charts and tables that each answer one question about your devices. The first page you see after signing in is your default dashboard. Everybody who can sign in to Eido has dashboards, and each person can have as many as they like.

Dashboards show the state of your estate as of the last sync with Intune. They are for looking and clicking through. To change one, see Building a dashboard.

The default dashboard: tiles along the top, then compliance by department, the top issues and three charts.

Open a dashboard#

Press Dashboards in the sidebar to open the list. It holds:

  • Any folders, each of which opens to show the dashboards inside it.
  • Your own dashboards, and dashboards other people have shared.
  • Show hidden dashboards, if you have hidden any.
  • Create New, for a new dashboard or a new folder.

A star beside a name marks your default dashboard. Press a name to open that dashboard.

Your default dashboard#

The first time you sign in, Eido makes a dashboard for you called Default Dashboard and fills it with a standard set of widgets:

  • Seven tiles: Compliant, Devices, Inactive, Lost, Compliance Issues, Config Issues and App Issues.
  • COMPLIANCE BREAKDOWN BY DEPARTMENT and TOP ISSUES.
  • Three charts: DEVICES BY OS, OS PATCH STATUS and WARRANTY COVERAGE.

It is yours to change. You can also make any other dashboard of your own the default, see Set your default dashboard.

The built-in widgets#

The built-in widgets come from the widget gallery. Their headings are fixed.

Tiles#

TileWhat it countsA click opens
CompliantThe percentage of devices whose compliance status is healthy. Devices managed only by Configuration Manager are left out of both sides of the sum, because Intune never evaluates compliance for them.Endpoints, filtered to devices that are not compliant.
DevicesEvery device on the Endpoints list.Endpoints.
InactiveDevices that have not synced with Intune for more than 30 days.Endpoints, filtered to inactive devices.
LostDevices with lost mode switched on.Endpoints, filtered to those devices.
Compliance IssuesOpen issues raised by compliance policies.Issues, filtered to compliance.
Config IssuesOpen issues raised by configuration policies.Issues, filtered to configuration.
App IssuesOpen issues raised by managed apps.Issues, filtered to apps.

The shield on the Compliant tile changes colour with the figure:

ColourCompliant
Green90% or more
Amber80% up to 90%
RedBelow 80%

The three issue tiles count issues at High and Medium severity. On a wide screen each also shows the split, as a red High chip and an amber Medium chip.

Top lists#

TOP ISSUES, TOP COMPLIANCE ISSUES, TOP CONFIG ISSUES and TOP APP ISSUES each list the five policies or apps with the most devices affected by an open issue.

  • The name is the policy or app, with its type beside it.
  • The number on the right is how many devices are affected.
  • The bar is longer the more devices are affected, and takes the colour of the worst severity: red for High, amber for Medium.

Press a row to open Issues filtered to that one policy or app.

Tables#

WidgetWhat it listsThe figure on the right
NEW DEVICESThe ten most recently enrolled devices.How long ago the device enrolled.
INACTIVE DEVICESTen devices that have not synced for more than 30 days, longest first.When the device last synced.
LONGEST NON COMPLIANTThe ten devices with the oldest open compliance issue.When that issue started.
DEVICES WITH MOST ISSUESThe ten devices with the most open issues.The number of open issues.

Press a row to open that device, see Device details. A table with nothing to list shows No Data.

Charts#

Each chart is a pie of your devices, or of your open issues, split one way.

ChartSplit byA click on a slice opens
DEVICES BY OSOperating systemEndpoints, filtered to that operating system
DEVICES BY MANUFACTURERManufacturerEndpoints, filtered to that manufacturer
DEVICES BY MODELModelEndpoints, filtered to that model
ENCRYPTIONEncrypted or notEndpoints, filtered to that state
DEVICES BY OWNERSHIPWho owns the device, as Intune records itEndpoints, filtered to that ownership
OS PATCH STATUSPatch statusPatch Compliance, filtered to that status
WARRANTY COVERAGEWarranty statusThe warranty report, filtered to that status
ISSUES BY DEPARTMENT, OFFICE, COUNTRY or STATEThe department, office, country or state of the device’s primary userIssues, filtered to that value

Devices or issues with no value for the split are gathered into a slice called Unknown.

Breakdowns#

COMPLIANCE BREAKDOWN BY DEPARTMENT, BY OFFICE, BY COUNTRY and BY STATE show one row for each department (or office, country or state), taken from the device’s primary user. Each row is a bar divided by compliance status, with the percentage written on each part:

  • Green: healthy.
  • Amber: unhealthy, Medium.
  • Red: unhealthy, High.
  • Grey, on the department breakdown: unknown.

Hover over a part of a bar for the number of devices. Press it to open Endpoints filtered to that status and that department. As on the Compliant tile, devices managed only by Configuration Manager are left out.

Custom widgets#

A dashboard can also hold widgets that somebody built from a Query Hub query. They carry the title their author gave them and appear as a table, a bar chart, a pie chart or a single-number tile.

  • Press a bar, a slice or a tile to open a panel listing the rows behind it. Open in QueryHub in that panel takes the same query into the report builder.
  • Press a row in a table widget that lists devices to open the device.

How to build one is in Building a dashboard.

Dates and refreshing#

The built-in widgets have no date range. They show how things stand now: open issues, current devices, current statuses. For how a figure has moved over time, use Trends. A custom widget can carry a date filter of its own, set by whoever built it.

A dashboard left open refreshes its built-in widgets every ten minutes. Reload the page to refresh everything straight away.

Which devices a dashboard covers#

A dashboard counts the devices you are allowed to see. If your role is limited to certain customers or tenants, the figures cover only those.

If your organisation manages several customers, the customer picker at the top of the sidebar also decides which dashboards you have. All Customers has its own list of dashboards and its own default. Each customer you select has a separate list, with a separate default that Eido creates the first time you open it, and every widget counts that customer’s devices only. See Customers overview.

On a shared screen#

The expand button is enough for a meeting. For a screen on a wall that should rotate through dashboards without anybody signed in, an administrator can set up a wallboard.

Common questions#

Why does a widget say “Widget unavailable”?#

The message continues: “You may not have access to the data behind this widget.” The dashboard was probably shared by somebody whose role lets them see data that yours does not. A custom widget in the same position says Unable to load widget. Ask an administrator to check your role, see Roles.

Why is there no Edit button?#

The dashboard belongs to somebody else and shows Shared with you instead. Only the owner can change a dashboard. To have your own version, create a new dashboard and add the same widgets.

Why is the Compliant figure different from the one in Intune?#

The tile leaves out devices managed only by Configuration Manager, and it counts a device as compliant when its compliance status in Eido is healthy. A device with an unknown compliance status counts against the percentage.

Why can I not see the High and Medium chips on the issue tiles?#

They are only drawn when the browser window is wide enough. The total on the tile is always there. Widen the window, or press the tile to see the issues themselves.

Why did the dashboards in the sidebar change?#

You selected a different customer. Each selection in the customer picker has its own dashboards and folders.

Which region is your Eido account in?

Each region has its own sign-in, so this page opens in the region you choose.

Not sure? The Login to Eido button in your welcome email opens the right one. See finding your region.

Does your organisation have its own Eido address, such as yourcompany.eido.io? Use the help there instead, at yourcompany.eido.io/help.
