The Reports section is your metrics board: at a glance you can see how many messages you received, how many conversations you had, which days and times are busiest, and anything else you need to track. Best of all, the board is yours: you choose which metrics to show, arrange them however works best for you, and create as many boards as you like.

Video walkthrough

Before you start

  • All you need is access to the Reports section. There’s nothing to set up beforehand.
  • Changes are saved automatically: there’s no save button.

Steps

1

Go to Reports

In the left-hand menu, click Reports. You’ll see your board with your business metrics. At the top, each tab (Main Dashboard, Attribution, Audiences…) is a separate board.

Preview it before adding

Hover over a metric and you’ll see how it looks on the right. Below the example it tells you how much space it takes up on the board and its minimum size.Once you find the one you want, click it. Some are added right away, others ask you to pick a value first. To finish, click Add metric.

Move it by dragging

New widgets always land at the bottom of the board. To move one, grab it by its title and drag. As you move it you’ll see a highlighted gap showing where it will land, and the other widgets shift out of the way. Release the mouse and you’re done.

Resize it

Move your mouse to the bottom-right corner of the widget and drag from there. You’ll see in real time how much space it will take up. This is handy for giving more prominence to the metrics you check most, or so charts show more detail.

Use each widget's menu

Every widget has a three-dot menu in its top right corner:
  • Edit — change its settings.
  • Move to board — send it to another one of your boards.
  • Delete — remove it from the board.

Fill it with the metrics you need

A new board starts empty. You can click Add widget, or use the suggested metrics shown below to get going faster.The idea is for each board to group the metrics for one topic: one for sales, one for support, one for campaigns.

The date range sits in the top right. Every widget on the board shows data for that period. You can pick it on the calendar or use the shortcuts: Today, Yesterday, Last 7 days, Last 30 days, This week, This month, Last month.Next to it is Filters, to see data for a specific channel or team member.

Your board is now set up your way: with the metrics that matter to you, in the order and size you chose. Every time you open Reports you’ll find it exactly as you left it.

Frequently asked questions

They’re saved automatically. When you move, resize or add a widget, the board updates instantly. There’s no save button.
Yes. Boards belong to the business, so if you rearrange a board or create a new one, your teammates will see it too.
No. Each metric has a minimum size (for example, 2 columns × 1 row) so it stays readable. The preview tells you what it is before you add it.
Two possible reasons: there’s no data for the selected period — try widening the date range — or the metric needs you to pick a value in its settings. Open it with the three dots → Edit.
There’s no undo, but adding it again takes seconds: Add widget and pick it once more. You will have to set its position and size again, though.
As many as you need. A tip: instead of one huge board with everything, build several small ones by topic. They’re much easier to read.
Yes. Add it on each board, or use Move to board from the widget menu if what you want is to relocate it.
