Overview

The KPI Dashboard gives you a single place to monitor service uptime KPIs: summary counts, grouped cards or tables, and quick access to alerts that affect each KPI. KPI definitions themselves are managed under Service KPIs; the dashboard focuses on current status and target compliance.

Step	What you do	Menu / route	Documentation
1	Define KPIs — service, filters, targets, groups	Metrics & KPIs → Service KPIs → /service-kpi	Service KPIs
2	Monitor status — summary cards, search, filters, cards or table	Metrics & KPIs → KPIs → /kpi-dashboard	KPI dashboard
3	Investigate alerts — alerts that match a KPI’s filters	View Alerts on a KPI card → /kpi-alerts	Viewing KPI alerts

Where to find it in the UI

In the sidebar under Metrics & KPIs:

• KPIs — /kpi-dashboard (page title: KPI Dashboard)
• Service KPIs — /service-kpi (create, edit, and calculate KPI definitions)

The dashboard toolbar includes Search KPIs by name, service, or group, filters for service, group, and status, a cards / table view toggle, and Refresh.

Permissions

Viewing the dashboard requires read:kpis (or higher KPI permissions) on your role, combined with Allowed KPI Groups so you only see KPIs in permitted groups. Create KPI on an empty dashboard requires write:kpis. See Creating and managing roles and Permissions reference — Services and KPIs.

How the parts fit together

Typical workflow:

1. An administrator defines Service KPIs for production services — each KPI specifies alert filters (severity, status, environment, resource), a target uptime, date range preset, and optional KPI groups for dashboard organization.
2. Operators open KPIs (/kpi-dashboard) to see which KPIs meet target or are below target, filtered by service or group.
3. When a KPI shows alert counts, View Alerts opens the alert list for that KPI’s filter set (requires service history capability in your license — see Viewing KPI alerts).

KPI groups on the dashboard mirror group tags assigned when KPIs are created or edited in Service KPIs. KPIs without a group appear under Ungrouped.

Availability limits

Capability	When limited
View Alerts	Button is disabled with a premium indicator when your license does not include service history. You can still see alert counts on the dashboard.
KPI visibility	Role Allowed KPI Groups empty while KPI permissions are set — no KPI data shown despite permissions on the role

Best practices

1. Assign KPI groups when creating KPIs so the dashboard stays organized by team, environment, or application.
2. Use summary cards (Total KPIs, Meeting Target, Below Target) as quick filters before narrowing with service or group dropdowns.
3. Switch to table view when comparing many KPIs across groups; use cards view for at-a-glance uptime and thresholds.
4. Refresh after bulk alert changes or KPI edits so uptime percentages reflect the latest data.
5. Pair dashboard monitoring with Service KPIs — edit targets, filters, or thresholds in Service KPIs, then return to the dashboard to verify impact.
6. Review role KPI groups whenever you grant read:kpis — empty Allowed KPI Groups means no dashboard data for that role.
