Add charts to a dashboard

TFS 2018

You can add the charts described in this article to a dashboard from their corresponding functional page, like:

  • Builds
  • Releases
  • Queries

Prerequisites

  • You must have created the team dashboard to which you want to add a chart.
  • To add, edit, or manage a team dashboard, you must have Basic access or greater and be a team admin, a project admin, or have dashboard permissions. In general, you need to be a member of the team to edit a team dashboard. Request your current team or project admin to add you as a team admin.

For more information, see Default permissions and access for charts and dashboards.

Add a work item query or chart

You can add work item queries and charts to a dashboard from the Queries page.

  1. Sign in to your organization (https://dev.azure.com/{yourorganization}) and go to your project.

    You can only add charts associated with shared queries. Charts associated with queries under My Queries folder don't display the Add to dashboard option.

Add an in-context work tracking report

There are many in-context reports that you can access from the web portal, but can't add to a dashboard. However, you may find a comparable widget listed in the widget catalog that tracks the same or similar data. If you find a widget that works, add it to the dashboard:

Add a build history chart

Each time you run a build, it logs information about the build, including:

  • Run time
  • Errors and warnings
  • Status: Completed or Failed

Tip

You can also add this chart to a team dashboard from the widget catalog.

  1. Sign in to your organization (https://dev.azure.com/{yourorganization}) and go to your project.

  2. Select Pipelines > Pipelines to add a build history chart to a team dashboard. The Add to dashboard menu selection is disabled when you don't have permissions to add it to the dashboards of the selected team context.

    The Build summary charts look similar to the following image.

  3. Hover over a bar to view build information and run time and select a bar to go to the build summary page.

Add a release summary chart

Each time a release gets deployed, it logs information about the release to each of its environments. You can add a release tile to your team dashboard to monitor release progress and gain quick access to each release.

You can also add this chart to a team dashboard from the widget catalog.
