# Manage Dashboards

## Overview <a href="#overview" id="overview"></a>

You view and manage dashboards, dashboard features, and dashboard settings in Fusion on different pages in the interface.

Once a dashboard is in **Open** or in **Edit** mode, Fusion displays additional elements and options.

For ease of use, each task related to dashboards displays as a sub-menu item in the documentation navigation menu under this, the **Manage Dashboards** heading.
