Add and configure widgets to visualize data in a NocoDB dashboard.

The dashboard editor has a flexible canvas for widgets. Drag and drop widgets to put them where you want.

NocoDB dashboards have these widget types:

| Widget Type                                                     | Description                            |

### Configuring Widgets

After you add a widget, configure its properties in the right panel. Each widget type has its own options, for example:

* **Data Source**: Select the table and records to visualize.
* **Display Options**: Customize labels, colors, and formatting.

For all options of a widget, refer to the page for that widget type.

<div style={{ display: "flex", gap: "1rem", justifyContent: "center", flexWrap: "wrap" }}>
  <img src="/img/v2/dashboards/widget-number-edit-1.png" alt="Number Widget Config 1" style={{ width: "30%", minWidth: "240px", borderRadius: "8px", border: "1px solid #ddd" }} />

  <img src="/img/v2/dashboards/widget-number-edit-2.png" alt="Number Widget Config 2" style={{ width: "30%", minWidth: "240px", borderRadius: "8px", border: "1px solid #ddd" }} />
</div>

### Arranging Widgets

Drag and drop widgets to change their position on the dashboard canvas. NocoDB uses a flexible grid layout, so you can put widgets where you want.

### Resizing Widgets

1. Hover over the right corner of the widget. The resize cursor shows.
2. Click and drag to change the widget size.

Some widget types have size limits. You can resize some widgets only horizontally.

### Deleting Widgets

1. In the widget header, click the 3-dot menu.
2. Select **Delete widget**.

### Duplicating Widgets

1. In the widget header, click the 3-dot menu.
2. Select **Duplicate widget**. NocoDB creates a copy of the widget.

Use a copy to make similar widgets with small differences.
