How to add goals in DashThis
DashThis allows you to compare your performance against your targets by adding goals to certain widgets.
Two widget types support goals:
- Gauge widget
- Historic widgets
Here’s how each one works.
1. Adding a goal in the Gauge widget
The Gauge widget shows how close you are to your goal using three color zones:
-
Red: far from the goal
-
Orange: getting closer
-
Green: goal reached — great job!

How to set a goal
-
Add a Gauge widget.
-
Open Edit Widget.
-
Enter your value in the Goal Value field.
-
Save.
The gauge will automatically adjust to display your progress.
2. Adding a goal in the Historic widget
The Historic widget shows your performance over time. You can add a goal line to see how your results compare to your target.
How to add a goal line
-
Open Edit Widget.
-
Check Show goal line.
-
Enter your Goal Value.
-
Save.

A horizontal line will appear on the chart to represent your goal.
