# Customization

### Customize

To customize your dashboard, click **Edit Layout**.

In this mode, you can resize, rename, rearrange or delete any of the widgets on your dashboard.

### Widgets

To add a new widget, click on <mark style="color:purple;">**+ WIDGET**</mark>. Here you can choose to add a `Table`, a `Chart`, or `Text`.

#### Table

Select `Table` option, and this window will open:

<figure><img src="/files/z4AT5g7rgHucHAaJFF1i" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Under **Datasources**, you'll see any Explorations that have been saved via the [Data Explorer](/features/data-explorer.md). If this dashboard is publicly viewable, you will only see Explorations that have been saved as publicly viewable.

Once you've selected a Datasource, you can edit the title and adjust the filters to show exactly what you need. When your table is formatted how you want it, click <mark style="color:purple;">**+ ADD WIDGET**</mark> to add the table to the dashboard.

You can also add tables from [Multisource Reports](/features/reports/multisource.md). (To include it on a public dashboard, it must be saved and made publicly viewable).

#### Chart

If you select `Chart`,  a similar window will open where you can select a Datasource from the available Explorations. From here you can choose a title, select the type of chart, and pick your x-axis and y-axis variables. You can also click <mark style="color:purple;">**SHOW TABLE**</mark> which allows you to view the exploration in table form, and filter or re-order the data that you'd like to see in your chart. Once you're done, click <mark style="color:purple;">**+ ADD WIDGET**</mark> to add the chart to your dashboard.

If you would like to add a chart from a Multisource report to your dashboard, such as a Build Velocity chart, there are instructions for how to do that here: [Build Velocity](/features/reports/build-velocity.md).

#### Text

Selecting **Text** will open a window where you can create static HTML content to add to your dashboard. This can be useful for adding titles, images or simply describing the content of your widgets.
