Dashboards overview
SWS Agent exposes more than one dashboard surface. The default Dashboard (/dashboard or /analytics-dashboard) is the role-aware KPI home—contacts, tasks, revenue indicators, and module shortcuts depending on enabled widgets. Launchpad (/launchpad) guides new workspaces through setup checkpoints.

Who can do this
All signed-in users see some dashboard widgets; widget catalog entries may hide based on role and enabled modules.
Before you begin
- Workspace has baseline data (contacts, tasks, or deals)
- You completed Navigate the app so sidebar modules are familiar
- Optional: assigned Workspace dashboards from an Admin
What you'll accomplish
- KPIs reviewed for the current week
- Drill-down paths to Contacts, Tasks, Reports, and Book of Business identified
- Understanding of default analytics home vs custom grid dashboards
Step-by-step procedure
Default analytics home
- Sidebar → Dashboard (routes include
/dashboardand/analytics-dashboarddepending on workspace assignment). - Scan each widget card—typical widgets include contact counts, task backlog, campaign activity, and performance snippets.
- Select a widget title or View all link to jump into the source module.
- New workspaces: open Launchpad for a checklist linking to Settings, first contact, and integrations.
- If your Admin assigned a Workspace dashboards grid as home, you may land on
/workspace-grid-dashboards/:idinstead—use the sidebar to return to classic modules.
Widget behavior
| Widget pattern | What to expect |
|---|---|
| Count tiles | Single number with trend arrow—click through for list view |
| Charts | Time-series or funnel—hover for values, click legend items when linked |
| Action lists | Shortcuts to overdue tasks or unread Inbox items |
| Performance snippets | May deep-link to /performance?tab=dashboard (Book of Business) |
| Smart List summaries | May link to /contact-segments or starred segment tabs |
Refresh the page after major imports—widget counts can lag briefly while read models sync.
Role and module gating
- Members may see fewer widgets than Admins.
- Disabled modules (Projects, Haves & Wants, Social) hide related widgets entirely.
- If a widget errors, confirm the backing module is enabled under Workspace modules.
- Haves & Wants widgets appear only when Post a Have / Post a Want routes are licensed for the tenant.
Relationship to other dashboards
- Book of Business (
/performance) — producer-focused book metrics with tabs Book of Business, My Goals, Deals, Teams, Settings (see Book of Business). - Workspace dashboards (
/workspace-grid-dashboards) — Admin-built grid layouts (see Customize dashboards). - Reports Center — formal scheduled reports (Reports overview).
Use the default dashboard for daily orientation; use Book of Business for quota coaching; use Reports for finance-grade exports.
Verify your work
- Widgets load without permission errors for your role
- Click-through links open the correct module route
- Counts move after you create a test contact or complete a task
- Launchpad checklist reflects completed setup steps on new tenants
Tips
Pin Book of Business or Tasks widgets at eye level if your role lives in follow-up queues all day.
Troubleshooting
| Zeros everywhere | New workspace—complete Set up your workspace | | Missing widget | Role restriction or module disabled | | Wrong dashboard opens | Admin may have assigned a custom grid dashboard as landing—check URL | | Stale counts | Refresh browser; verify background sync completed |
