1.6 Exposing an Association to Dashboard

What

FileWave can expose an association to the Dashboard so deployment progress is visible as a Dashboard widget.

When/Why

Use this when a rollout is important enough that administrators or other stakeholders need a quick progress view. It is most useful for larger deployments, client upgrades, or staged rollouts where completion, remaining devices, warnings, and errors need to be watched without opening the association every time.

How

  1. Open the association you want to track.
  2. On the association options, enable Expose to Dashboard.
  3. Save the association and confirm the change through your normal FileWave workflow.
  4. Open the Dashboard and review the association progress widget.

The exact surrounding labels may vary by FileWave version, but the association option is shown below.

After the change is active and clients report status, the Dashboard shows progress for the exposed association.
