A multi-runbook dashboard is created at the workspace level and consists of several distinct components, providing various ways to track progress and identify potential problem areas.

The dashboard can be scheduled to automatically refresh at desired intervals. In addition, you have the ability to schedule email updates to teams and individuals where users can click a link that will take them directly to the dashboard. Emails can be sent one at a time or can be scheduled on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis.

The multi-runbook dashboard is available for all users who have the Read Only role (at minimum) within the workspace, as well as those who have access to view and manage runbooks.

To access your dashboard, click the dashboard icon located underneath your workspace name:

You can filter your dashboard at any time to view a breakdown of the information provided — this includes any custom fields.

View data of all runbooks in a workspace categorized by lateness in their planned schedule. You have the ability to customize and better define lateness according to your or your team's standards.

View the RAG status of runbooks in your workspace — the number shown indicates the total number of runbooks in your workspace.

This count shows how many runbook rehearsals have been completed.

This summary provides an overview of the size of runbooks in your workspace.

View which runbooks are canceled, completed a live run, are actively in a live run, and more.

View runbooks based on how they are distributed across folders, events, runbook types, or teams.

View the breakdown of runbooks by folder, event, runbook type, or team. The chart will show the number of runbooks in each folder, in addition to details on what stage the runbook is in. The number of runbooks with a particular RAG status is also included.

Drill down on particular runbooks — similar to the runbook completion component, this displays RAG status, runbook name, start times, and runbook stage by percent. This component can be used alongside other runbook filters.

This count provides a way to offset two variables against one another. This may be useful for understanding the completion of particular runbook types across folders, for example. It could also be used to determine the completion of events across teams. Variables that can be set include event, folder, runbook type, and team.

This component is useful for gaining an understanding of your runbook's busy periods. It can be configured to gain more insight into runbooks across folders, events, and teams. Clicking on a particular date will display runbooks scheduled for that day. Alternatively, clicking on a grouping will display all runbooks in that group.

View the various task types used across runbooks. This chart can also be configured to view tasks split by level, stream, team, or test result. User filters to further break down the data in this component.

This summary provides a breakdown of task stages across all runbooks in your workspace, illustrated by the total number of tasks in all runbooks. Task statistics are not clickable at this time.

This graph highlights the percentage of task completeness by a chosen variable. Those variables can be set up to include task type, level, stream, team, and test result. To note, task components cannot be clicked on for more detail at this time.

The Stream Completion graph highlights the percentage of stream completeness by a chosen variable across runbooks. These variables can be set up to include teams and streams. The stream completion component can be clicked down further to reveal the runbooks on the right-hand side panel. Clicking on the runbook in the panel will take you to the task list view within the runbook.
