Dashboard
A dashboard in SharePoint is a page primarily designed for mobile use, providing users with quick access to essential tools and resources. It typically includes quick links, task-oriented apps, and widgets that allow users to perform frequent actions with minimal effort. SharePoint dashboards are designed to reduce scrolling and navigation, ensuring efficiency for users who need to stay productive while on the go. They can also be customized to display key metrics, news, or workflows tailored to team or organizational needs, integrating seamlessly with other Microsoft 365 applications like Teams, Planner, or Power BI.
