Unit 6: Deploying and Sharing Dashboards

Deploy Your Dashboard

Once your dashboard is ready you can deploy it on a public server or embed it into a webpage.

Here are basic considerations to keep in mind.

Note: This course is specifically targeted towards dashboard creators and so does not cover technical aspects and considerations for publishing dashboards, which are the focus of IT specialists.

Share dashboards

Dash apps run on localhost, so you can only access them on your own machine. (SDMX Dashboard Generator (SDMX-DG) is implemented in Python and Dash.)
To share a dashboard deploy it to a public server, get help from your technical team.
Once deployed to a server, the SDMX DG dashboards will be accessible at http://your-server-ip.

Embed dashboards

To embed your dashboard in a webpage, use an <iframe>.

Code

<iframe src="http://your-server-ip/dashboard-link" width="800" height="600"></iframe>
