With this awesome widget, keeping track of your projects has never been easier! The Overview Widget gathers and summarizes progress from your selected boards and columns into a single place. This is a great way to get a high-level picture of what's happening for each project and overall! 🤸‍♀️

Create a Dashboard

To begin, create a dashboard by clicking on the + icon in your left-hand pane, and select Dashboard from the dropdown menu. Give your dashboard a title, and choose which boards you want connected to it in the following screen. 

Add the widget

Click on the + Add Widget button in the top left of your dashboard, select More widgets from the bottom of the dropdown menu, and search for Overview from within the  Widget Center.  Finally, click on the Add widget button. 

Widget settings

The Overview Widget will pull data from a Date or Timeline column and a Status column on your boards.  Ensure that your connected boards include these columns for the widget to pull the correct data.

Once your columns have been added to your board, click the three dots in the top-right corner of your Overview widget in your dashboard, then choose Settings from the dropdown menu. 

In the panel on the right, you can set up your Overview Widget with completely customizable settings. You can choose the status columns you'd like to include from each board, as well as dates, boards, or even specific groups.

How it works

Now that your widget is set up, you can take a look at it to see where you stand on all your projects!

Completed: When you've completed all your tasks, a green label labeled Completed will appear. 

On track: When you're on track with your tasks, a blue label will signal that you've completed most tasks by the deadline, and your project is advancing at a great pace! 

At risk: When you have approaching or past deadlines and a few tasks left to do, you'll see a yellow At risk label. 

Behind schedule: When you aren't keeping up with several tasks, and the deadlines are past or quickly approaching, you'll see a red Behind schedule warning label. 

Now you can see where you stand on all your projects at a glance!
