Best Practices

Pin what matters most: Only favorite dashboards you check regularly. Too many cards can be overwhelming.
Use appropriate time ranges: Match the time range to how you use the data. Daily standup? Use 7 days. Monthly review? Use 30 days.
Mix visualization types: Use volume trends for quantity tracking, sentiment trends for satisfaction monitoring, and impact distribution for prioritization.
Create focused saved searches: The more specific your saved search filter, the more actionable the trend data will be.
Review trends regularly: Dashboard cards are most valuable when checked consistently to spot patterns early.
