What is a shared dashboard?
A shared dashboard is a read-only URL that gives anyone who has it access to a subset of your analytics data, without requiring a GhostlyX account. Use it to share data with clients, stakeholders, or the public.
Creating a shared dashboard
- Go to Settings for your site.
- Under Shared dashboard, toggle visibility on.
- Optionally set a password to restrict access to people who know the password.
- Copy the generated URL and share it.
What is included
The shared dashboard shows:
- Core metrics (visitors, pageviews, visits, bounce rate, duration)
- Top pages
- Traffic sources
- Countries, devices, browsers, OS
- Goal conversion rates
What is not included
The following are never visible on a shared dashboard:
- Session recordings
- Heatmaps
- A/B test details
- Hack detection status
- Site settings
- Billing information
- API tokens
Revoking access
Disable the toggle in Settings > Shared dashboard. The URL will immediately return a 404. Re-enabling generates a new URL. The old URL does not become active again.
Revoking a shared dashboard URL is immediate and permanent. Anyone using the old URL will lose access instantly. If you re-enable sharing, a new URL is generated.
