Introducing the DX Dashboard

Why we built Dashboard

Teams told us they needed a clear, shared “home” to start their day in DX—something that works whether you manage teams, contribute code, or lead an entire org. The new Dashboard does exactly that: it brings together group, personal, and organization metrics so you can quickly understand progress, spot risks, and decide what to do next.

Note: Dashboard (and real-time, system-based Core 4) is available for Data Cloud customers with AI features enabled. DevEx Cloud-only customers will continue to land on the survey-based Core 4 overview.

New: A new home for DX Frontline

As part of Dashboard, we’re more deeply integrating DX Frontline into the rest of the DX platform. Starting with the release of Dashboard on August 25th, Frontline will be renamed to DX Alerts. All Frontline features are directly integrated into Dashboard - bringing them up front and center.

The new Personal dashboard view brings all of the same IC-level information and metrics that Frontline provided, and the Alerts tab of the new Group dashboard allows the same level of customization for sending notifications to your team via Slack or Microsoft Teams.

New: support for real-time, system-based DX Core 4 metrics

Alongside Dashboard, we’re introducing a system-based option for the DX Core 4 that updates continuously from your connected tools. Turning this on gives you a live pulse across the DX Core 4, helping you catch problems and make changes earlier.

• What’s included at launch: Impact and Quality can now be powered by PR allocation from DX AI, allowing you to get an accurate and real-time measure of how your team is performing.
• How to enable: Admins in DX can switch the Core 4 metrics to system-based in their DX app settings.

We strongly encourage enabling system-based Core 4 to get the most from Dashboard.
