# Create a Dashboard from the Dashboard Tab

### Access the Dashboard Section

After logging in, go to the **'Dashboard'** tab located in the left-hand navigation bar. This will take you to the **Dashboard Listing Page**, where all existing dashboards are displayed as cards. You can filter these dashboards by:

* **Data Source** (connected databases)
* **Type** (Chart, Notebook)
* **Status** (Published, Unpublished)
* **Author** (You, Others)

### Create a New Dashboard

Click on the **'+ Dashboard'** button at the top of the page. A popup will appear asking for:

* **Name** of the dashboard
* **Description**

Once you provide these details, click 'Add' to create your dashboard.

### Choose a Method to Build the Dashboard

After creating the dashboard, you’ll be prompted to choose one of the two methods to build it:

* **SQL Editor**: Create charts by writing SQL queries.
* **SQL Notebook**: Build a dashboard using notebook-based queries.

You will be redirected to the respective method's listing page, where you can start building your dashboard.
