After you create a query, you can add it to dashboards that you created, or dashboards that you cloned from other dashboards.
All of the items you can add to dashboards like text, filters images, and queries are known as widgets. For information about adding other widget types, see Adding and arranging dashboard widgets.
Note: You can also add a query to a dashboard, by saving it to the dashboard (see Working with queries).
To add a query to a dashboard
- In the dashboard customization menu of dashboard builder, click Add
- From the drop-down list, select Add query.
- From the list of queries, click the query you want to add to the dashboard.
You can also click New query to launch query builder from this page and create a new query.
The query is added to the dashboard. On the dashboard, you can drag and drop the query wherever you want, and resize it by dragging the corners of the query panel.

How do I add the Knowledge Capture by Article Query (from the Zendesk Guide Dashboard) to my custom Dashboard that has ticket metric queries in it? When I search for queries in the "Add Queries" it seems like a lot of the Queries that show up on the Pre-Canned Zendesk Support Dashboard are missing from the search (like Ticket Type and others): http://recordit.co/mg3mwD0afS
Thanks!
Will the ability to add multiple queries to a dashboard be enabled at some point? Generally I build multiple queries then load them all into a dash, but without a way to load multiple queries it is a little annoying.
Hey Judd,
The queries from the pre-built dashboards become available options once you clone the pre-built dashboard where they are connected.
We create these queries as a spin up for the dashboard so in effect, they are not available for adjustment until cloned by the user. (I believe the team is working on adjusting this, but no ETA at this time.)
Chris,
That is a great piece of Feedback for our Explore Product Team. If you wouldn't mind posting this in our Product Feedback forum. Our Dev team goes through the forum on a regularly basis looking for customer requests to update and evolve the platform.
For my part, I will also post this in our internal coms channels and see if they are aware of this type of request and, if not, about adding it to our development roadmap.
