There are 3 solutions to integrate a custom data source in your dashboards. ### **#1 Use the manually editable widgets** [![static widget](https://blob.dashthis.com/support/2016/09/static-widget1.png)](https://help.dashthis.com/integrate-custom-data-source-dashboard) This one is the easier option. The Comment Box and the Editable Number allow you to manually enter the numbers or the information you want to show your clients without having to configure a data source.
