This article covers the out-of-the-box dashboards that FORGE Content provides to get an overview of editorial tasks.

Overview

Dashboards aggregate the FORGE Content Manager and front-end performance in a single page, with multiple views.

Select OK, LET'S GET STARTED to list the available dashboards:

Administrators can limit each dashboard's visibility by assigning a required permission. The following details how to assign permissions for each type of dashboard.

System status

The System Status dashboard displays the health of the FORGE Content Manager services and front-end.

Health information details each service (Application Service, Backoffice, Dependency, Distribution Api, Notification Dispatcher, and Front End). If services run in many nodes (redundant infrastructure for high-availability), the System Status dashboard provides details about each node.

Refer to your administrator when a service or the front-end displays red (see Front End example below).
