Dashboards are a quick way to access information in reports, calendars, and from external pages. Which constraints apply to the creation of dashboards?

A dashboard in Adobe Workfront acts as a container for reports, calendars, and other elements. The dashboard's permissions do not override the permissions of the individual components it displays. For a user to view the data within a report on a dashboard, they must have been granted viewing rights to that specific report. If the underlying report is not shared with the user, the dashboard panel will appear empty or show an error, making the dashboard ineffective for that user. This makes sharing a critical constraint for dashboard functionality.

A. Dashboard layouts cannot be customized when multiple object types are present This is incorrect. A key feature of dashboards is the ability to display and customize the layout of various reports and calendars, which often represent different object types (e.g., projects, tasks, issues).
B. Before creating the dashboard, at least one of the report objects of the destination dashboard must already be created. This is incorrect. A new dashboard can be created as an empty shell. Reports, calendars, and external pages can be created separately and added to the dashboard at any time after its initial creation.

1. Adobe Experience League - Share a dashboard: "For users to be able to see the reports on a shared dashboard, you must also share the reports on the dashboard with them. For information about sharing reports, see the article Share a report." This directly supports option C as a critical constraint.

2. Adobe Experience League - Create a dashboard: The documented steps show that a dashboard is first created, and then elements are added. "After you create a dashboard, it is blank. ... Click Add a Report, Add Calendar, or Add External Page to add content to your dashboard." This proves that a report does not need to exist before the dashboard is created, invalidating option B.

3. Adobe Experience League - Customize a dashboard: The documentation details how to "drag panels to new locations" and "resize panels," with no mention of limitations based on the number or type of objects present. This invalidates option A.
