The Dashboard is the front page of a Confluence site. It provides an overview of the site, access to all spaces to which you have 'view' permission, and displays a list of the most recently updated content within them.

You can go to the Dashboard from any page on your site by clicking on the logo beside the page title or via the Breadcrumbs (the "You are here" path) located at the top of every page.

The dashboard is divided into five sections:

  1. The Welcome Message for the site, which is configured from the Administration Console.

  2. A list of the spaces within the site to which you have access, presented via convenient tabs: 'My', 'Team', 'New' or 'All' spaces. See Customising the Dashboard.

  3. A list of the most Recently Updated documents on the site from the spaces listed. For example, if you click on the tab 'Team', the recently updated content from your team spaces will be listed here.

  4. A list of your Favourite Pages. See Working with Favourites.

  5. Useful links:
    1. — see Setting up a New Global Space
    2. — see Using the RSS Feed Builder
    3. — see Searching the People Directory

The Dashboard is the only place in Confluence from where you can:

  • access all existing spaces on the site.
  • add a new space to the site.

By default, the Dashboard is also the site homepage. However, you can set any other page in Confluence as the homepage via the Space Admin tab or your User Profile settings.
