Dashboard pages are integrated into the system navigation. This includes internal dashboard pages, which permit personalised contents and settings, as well as public dashboard pages for the integration in public dashboards, but also in internal navigation sections that do not include personalised data.
Dashboard pages have panels that include various types of content.
To use a dashboard page in the system, it has to be assigned to a navigation category in the navigation or dashboard manager.

Internal Dashboard
Internal dashboards can only be displayed to logged-in users. They offer additional settings like access control list (ACL)-based panels or welcome messages
Any number of panels can be integrated. The administrator can configure whether panels without content should be hidden or displayed for the learners. A hidden panel is checked each time it is loaded. If content is then available, the panel is shown again. The report panels are always displayed and cannot be hidden.
Standard panels with freely definable content, new panels, and system panels with user-specific data (e.g. inbox) can be assigned to internal dashboard pages.
