Personalized dashboards help you to monitor new events, setup widgets and alerting. In this tutorial, you will learn how to setup dashboard an alerting.
1. Query

4. Setup Widgets
Click on the Add Widget (+) icon on the top right corner to add a widget. You will see a popup to choose from 5 different widgets:
- Donut
- Histogram

In this example, we will select Histogram. For our use case, we would correlate error events with the CPU Utilization (in %) facet.
After selecting a facet, you can see a preview of the widget. Click on Add Widget.
You can also add notes to refer to them. In the below screenshot, we have added two widgets.
- Histogram for CPU Utilization (in %) facet

Click on the Share icon on the top right corner. From the popup, you can select members with whom you want to share the dashboard.
6. Setup Alerts
