<v ->Okay, so in this sublesson,</v> we're gonna look at configuring the tiles on our dashboard. So we're gonna explore tile details, we're gonna modify titles on the tiles and we're gonna display the last refresh time. Okay, so I'm back over on my dashboard now and now we want to go about doing some configuration of these tile details. So what I do here is hover over top of one of the tiles on my dashboard here. And I can see these three little dots and I see this more options. So I click on that and what we can do here now is we can see that we can get at the details of this particular tile. So I'm just gonna go ahead and click on that. And we're gonna see a new configuration box open up. Now we can see a few things on these tile details here that we may want to go ahead and configure. So we're going to leave the title alone. So it's called sales performance. But how about we go and add a subtitle to this? Because if you keep in mind, back when we actually pinned this tile to the dashboard itself, we actually pinned it for a particular product. So what I'm going to do here, I'm going to just going to go into the subtitle and I'm just going to paste this. And this is now going be called mountain bike 200, black 42. So now I will have a subtitle on this dashboard and this will help further clarify what exactly people are looking at from an informational standpoint. I can also go in here and actually display the last refresh time. So I'm going to go ahead and click that. And this will give an indication as to when the tile was last refreshed. I can also go in here and set a custom link. So if there was a link that I actually wanted to put on my dashboard, I could do that. I could have it linked to some external source or to a link to a dashboard in the report in the current workspace and go ahead and provide the URL to that. So this is a few of the things we can do here on the tile itself. Okay. So we'll go ahead and close that out there and that's really about it. That's all we wanted to show you in terms of things you can do to configure a tile.
