Steps

  1. On Jira's main dashboard, head to the left-side panel and click 'More'.
  2. Choose 'Dashboards' from the list of options.
  3. Select the dashboard you want to edit.
  4. Click 'Edit' in the top-right corner to proceed.

📌 Why this matters

Jira dashboards are a central hub for tracking project health, sprint progress, and team workload in real time. The ability to edit and customize dashboards — by adding gadgets and changing layouts — gives project managers and agile teams full control over what data they see at a glance. Tailored dashboards reduce context-switching, improve decision-making speed, and ensure every team member has visibility into the metrics that matter most. For organizations scaling their Jira usage, mastering dashboard customization is essential to maximizing the platform's value.
