Add Lightning reports to a CRM Analytics dashboard
- With a dashboard open in edit mode, click Create Query.
- Click the Report tab to see available reports.
- Choose a report.

- Add a widget to your dashboard, such as a table widget.
- Drag the Lightning report query you created onto the widget in the
dashboard.

- Select the widget and then click the Query tab to control how report data is displayed in the widget.
- Choose a view option in the View As dropdown.
- Aggregate—Hides details; individual records don’t display in the report.
- Grouping—summary formulas, and record counts remain visible (tabular format).
- Summary—Shows data in a combined chart and table format. Reports must be grouped by rows (summary report).
When you create a CRM Analytics query from a report, the query is created based on the currently saved version of the report. To edit groupings and fields in a report that’s used in a CRM Analytics dashboard, modify the report using report builder, save the report, and then refresh the dashboard in CRM Analytics.
