Overview
Introduction to Dashboard.
Dashboard is available in Evidently OSS, Evidently Cloud and Evidently Enterprise.
What is a Dashboard?
A Dashboard provides a clear view of your AI application performance. You can use it:
- to track evaluation results across multiple expriments;
- to track live production quality over time.
Each Project has its own Dashboard. It’s empty at first.
To populate it, you need to run an evaluation and save at least one Report to the Project. You can then choose values from Reports to plot.
Dashboard Panels
A Panel is a visual element in the Dashboard that displays specified values in a single widget. Panels can be counters, line plots, bar plots, etc.
You can customize your Dashboard by adding Panels:
- Using Python API. Define dashboard as code.
- Through the UI. Add Panels directly from the interface. (Cloud and Enterprise only).
To create a Panel, you need to specify:
- Value. Choose individual metric results to plot.
- Parameters like title, panel type, size.
- Tags (optional). You can filter and visualize specific data subsets. To enable this, you must first add Tags (e.g. a model version) to Reports when you run an evaluation.
From Dashboard to Reports
By clicking on any individual value on the Dashboard, you can open the associated Report and source Dataset for further debugging.
Dashboard Tabs
Multiple Tabs are available in Evidently Cloud and Evidently Enterprise.
You can logically organize Panels within the same Dashboard into different Tabs.
Pre-built Tabs. To simplify setup, you can start with dashboard templates for common use cases. These are preset Panel combination, so you don’t have to add them one by one.
Available Tabs:
| Template | Description | Data source |
|---|---|---|
| Columns | Shows the results of text evaluations over time OR plots column distributions over time for categorical and numerical columns. | TextEvals(), DataSumaryPreset()orValueStats() for individual columns. |
To add a Tab:
- Enter the “Edit” mode by clicking on the top right corner of the Dashboard.
- Click on the “Add tab” button using “plus” sign on the left.
- Choose a template Tab in the dropdown.
- Optionally, give a custom name to the Tab.
To delete a Tab: enter the “Edit” mode again, choose “edit Tabs” sign next to the Tab names, and choose which one to delete.
