How to Create AI-Powered Dashboards

Prerequisites

Access to the Dashboard section

At least one integration connected with data

Navigation: Sidebar → Dashboard → ZIN Dashboard

Navigate to the Dashboard section.

Select the ZIN Dashboard option.

You will see a prompt input area with suggestion chips.

Type what you want in natural language, for example:

"Create a CISO dashboard with risk posture, vulnerability trends, and compliance score"

"Show me endpoint security metrics with patch status and threat detection rates"

"Build an executive dashboard for board reporting"

> Tip: Use the suggestion chips for common dashboard types if you want a quick start.

After entering your prompt, ZIN analyzes your request.

It suggests a set of KPIs/KRIs with appropriate visualization types.

Review each suggested widget:

Widget title and description

Data source and query

Chart type

Accept, modify, or remove individual widgets.

Adjust chart types or add additional widgets.

The dashboard is created with the final widget set.

Widgets are arranged in a drag-and-drop grid that you can rearrange.
