That’s why you’re here, isn’t it? So let’s dash your data! Before starting with the [dashboard creator](https://dashthis.com/dashboard-creator), make sure you’ve connected your data sources, so your report is full of meaningful numbers! [You can learn here how to connect your data sources.](https://help.dashthis.com/connect-data-sources?hsLang=en) Your data sources are already connected? Nice! You’re ready to create your first dashboard!   1. [Types of dashboards](https://help.dashthis.com/create-dashboard#types) 2. [Period, language, and currency](https://help.dashthis.com/create-dashboard#period) 3. [Data sources](https://help.dashthis.com/create-dashboard#sources)   Let's start creating dashboards!    In the top-left and top-right corner of the screen, there is a button called *+ New dashboard* and another one called *Create dashboard.* Click it. ![](https://help.dashthis.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-13-2024-08-10-46-5718-PM.png?width=688&height=44&name=image-png-Nov-13-2024-08-10-46-5718-PM.png)   ### **1 – Types of dashboards**   The first step is to choose which template you want or a blank dashboard. ![](https://help.dashthis.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-13-2024-08-01-46-2620-PM.png?width=688&height=248&name=image-png-Nov-13-2024-08-01-46-2620-PM.png) If you want, you can [choose one of our preset templates](https://help.dashthis.com/how-to-use-dashboard-templates?hsLang=en)designed by our experts. You can also start from scratch and choose a blank dashboard, your choice!   Click on the blank dashboard or template you want to use. ### **2 – Period, language, and currency**   Once you’ve chosen your dashboard type, you can set your dashboard preferences! ![](https://help.dashthis.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-13-2024-08-07-10-7414-PM.png?width=688&height=245&name=image-png-Nov-13-2024-08-07-10-7414-PM.png)   You can choose your dashboard’s name, time period, language, and currency.   The **time period** is the length of time shown in your dashboard. You can then choose the **language** according to your selected region.   Please note the language you choose won’t apply to the entire dashboard. In the Editor mode, the *Previous period* and the *Previous year* buttons in each widget, as well as the menu in the top right corner of the widgets, will be in the language you’ve selected. The titles of the dashboard, widgets, and headers automatically appear in English, but these fields are fully editable. Just click on the field you want to change and write the title you need.   In the Viewer, the periods will appear in the language you’ve selected and following the format of the region. If you want to have a complete translation, [contact us](https://dashthis.com/contact/)!   The **currency** will be determined depending on the language and region you’ve chosen.   You can also include a **password** in order to protect your dashboard.   ### **3 – Data sources**   The next step is to connect your integration(s). ![](https://help.dashthis.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-13-2024-08-08-20-2702-PM.png?width=688&height=246&name=image-png-Nov-13-2024-08-08-20-2702-PM.png)   Simply connect all the integrations and data sources you want to add to your dashboard. You can use the search bar to find your data sources either by the name of the integration, name of your source, or even its ID.   If you selected a template, you can choose to connect one or multiple integrations from the ones available in the template (predefined integrations), you can also add new integrations that are already connected in your account (other integrations), or [connect new integrations](https://help.dashthis.com/connect-data-sources?hsLang=en).   Now all you have to do is click "create dashboard" and you're all done!   If you’ve chosen a preset template, your dashboard will appear. If you’ve chosen an empty dashboard, your next step is to [add your first widget](https://help.dashthis.com/add-a-widget?hsLang=en)!   Have fun!   [Go back to your account,](https://dashthis.com/app/admin) and create your first dashboard!     ### Need help with your dashboard?
