Key takeaways

  • Turn a canvas of AI answers into a shareable Superset dashboard with a single click.
  • The dashboard keeps your layout, your notes and the same numbers and colours you saw on the canvas.
  • Chart edits flow through on their own; update the layout or remove the dashboard whenever you like.
  • New to DashboardGPT and Superset? Start with the Apache Superset and AI guide.

Why publish a canvas

The canvas is where you think: ask a question, get a chart, ask a follow-up, add a note, and move things around until the story is clear. But insights only matter once the right people see them. Publishing turns that finished canvas into an Apache Superset dashboard your whole team can open, so the work you did while exploring becomes something you can share straight away.

  • Save hours of rebuilding. No recreating charts one by one in a separate tool.
  • One place for the team. Published dashboards sit alongside the rest of your Superset dashboards in the BI Workspace.
  • Numbers people trust. What your team sees on the dashboard is exactly what you saw on the canvas.

Publish in three steps

  1. Ask your questions. Type what you want to know in plain English. Each answer lands on the canvas as a chart.
  2. Arrange the story. Place charts side by side, resize them, and add notes that explain what matters.
  3. Choose "Publish to Superset". It sits in the canvas export menu. Your canvas becomes a Superset dashboard, with a link to open it.

A small "In Superset" badge on the canvas reminds you it has been shared and takes you straight to the dashboard.

It looks like your canvas

You spent time getting the layout right, so the dashboard keeps it. Charts that sit side by side on the canvas sit side by side on the dashboard, big charts stay big, and your notes come along to give readers context. The numbers and colours match too, so nobody has to ask which version is right. Why canvas and Superset charts match covers this in more detail.

Update or remove any time

  • Chart edits flow through on their own. Refine a chart on the canvas and the dashboard shows the new version.
  • Layout changes are your call. Rearrange the canvas as much as you like, then choose "Update in Superset" when it is ready. The same dashboard is refreshed, so your team's link keeps working.
  • Remove it in one click. Choose "Remove from Superset" to take the dashboard down. Your canvas stays exactly as it was, ready to publish again.
