Understanding Pages

Intro

In Domo, Pages are screens where you can view Cards. 

Pages can be system Pages or Card Pages. System Pages have special properties (discussed in the next section) and are included by default in every Domo instance; you cannot copy, delete, or modify these. Card Pages are Pages you add yourself to your instance. These comes in two types, as will be explained later.

For more information about Cards, see Understanding Cards.

For information about personalizing the layout of Cards in Pages, see Managing Cards and Pages.

For more information about Domo Stories, see Creating Domo Stories.

System Pages

Domo contains several system Pages available by default in every instance.

Card Pages

Card Pages are Pages you add yourself to your instance. These comes in two types:

• Standard Card Pages. Users can personalize these basic Pages by rearranging and resizing Cards and creating Collections. Other functionality such as borders and headers, background colors, drill-in-place, etc. is available only in Domo Stories Pages, not standard Pages. 

• Domo Stories Pages. These Pages can only be personalized within a special Edit view, ensuring that all users see the same thing in a Page. Cards in a Domo Stories Page also appear the same no matter what device or platform you are using. These Pages also provide many more personalization options than standard Pages, such as headers, borders, background colors. You can also specify what actions occur when Cards are clicked (drill-in-place, opening an external URL, etc.). For more information about Domo Stories, see Creating Domo Stories.

Navigating to Pages and Subpages

You can find all of the Pages and Subpages you have access to on the left side of the screen in a scrollable "Dashboards" list. You can collapse this list by clicking the icon, giving more space when you want to focus on important dashboard content. You can still show the list when it is in its collapsed state by mousing over the icon, or "repin" the list by clicking .
 

You can search for Pages and Subpages in your instance by entering the name in the Filter by name box, allowing you to quickly filter down the list of Pages as you type.
 

If you have added Pages as Favories, you can jump to them quickly by clicking Favorites at the top of the Pages list and selecting the Page you want to open.

You can add, rename, reorder, and hide Pages in the Manage Pages dialog, which you access by clicking Manage Pages at the bottom of the left-hand Pages navigation list. For more information, see Managing Pages.

Adding Pages to your Domo instance

You can add Pages and Subpages to your Domo instance in the Manage Pages dialog. For more information about this dialog, see Managing Pages.

Sharing Pages

By default, when you add a Page or Subpage to Domo, you are the only user who can access that Page. You can share access to Pages and Cards using sharing controls. For more information, see Sharing Access to Content.

Viewing or changing the Page owner

You can view the owner of a Page. The owner's user photo appears at the top of the Page to the left of the "Shared" information.

When you click the owner's photo, an avatar Card appears that contains contact information, the user's most frequently and recently viewed Cards, a list of groups to which the user belongs, a Go to Profile button, a Follow button so that you can follow this user in Buzz, an Assign Task button so you can assign tasks to the user, and a Send Message button so you can contact them in Buzz. For more information about the Profile Page, see Profile Page Layout. For more information about following a user, see Following a Card or User in Buzz.

You can change the owner of a Page by clicking the Change link and selecting the new owner in the menu. This link only appears if...

• you have an "Admin" default security role,

• you have a custom role with the "Manage Cards and Pages" privilege enabled, or

• you are the Page owner.

For more information about default security roles, see Default Security Role Reference. For more information about custom roles, see Managing Roles.
