This article demonstrates how to change the default home page dashboard used in Grafana for SystemLink. This can configured if it is more useful for SystemLink users to land on a custom-made dashboard.

Follow the steps below to change the default home page dashboard in Grafana:
  1. Access the SystemLink web interface in a browser.
    • By default, you should land on the Grafana home page. If not, select Custom Applications >> Grafana from the navigation menu.
  2. From the Grafana menu, select Administration >> Default Preferences.
  3. In the settings, change the Home Dashboard option to a dashboard of your choice.
    • If no dashboards appear, it may be because you have not yet created a dashboard, or you did not save a recently created dashboard.
  4. Click Save to save your changes.
    • If prompted to save changes for the whole organization, click Save.

Now Grafana will automatically use your custom dashboard as the home page.
