Add Custom Lightning Web Components to Lightning Dashboards (Beta)
Use custom Lightning Web Components (LWCs) in Lightning dashboards to add meaningful
visual context and support new use cases. Custom LWCs provide interactive, real-time data views
that go beyond standard dashboard capabilities. For example, you can add an LWC to display a
waterfall chart, which isn’t available in standard dashboard components.
