When you create a dashboard, it's private by default, which means you're the only one who can see it. To make dashboards available to others, you can share them with other users. First, you have to publish the dashboard as an Azure resource. To publish and share a custom dashboard, follow these steps:
140
-
141
-
1. Select **Share** from the page header. **Sharing + access control** opens.
142
-
143
-
1. Verify that the correct dashboard name is shown.
144
-
145
-
1. Select a **Subscription name**. Users with access to the subscription can use the shared dashboard. Access to the resources represented by the individual tiles is determined by Azure role-based access control.
146
-
147
-
1. Select the checkbox to publish this dashboard to the 'dashboards' resource group for the selected subscription. Or, clear the checkbox and choose to publish to an existing resource group instead.
148
-
149
-
1. Choose a location for the dashboard resource. We recommend you locate the dashboard with other resources. If you choose from existing resource groups, the dashboard is automatically located with that resource group.

### Set access control on a shared dashboard

After the dashboard is published, manage who has access to the dashboard by following these steps:
158
-
159
-
1. In the **Sharing + access control** pane, select **Manage users**.
160
-
161
-

162
-
163
-
1. The **Access Control** page opens. You can review the level of access for someone or add a new role assignment. When you add a role assignment here, you're granting permissions to the dashboard.

> [!NOTE]

-
> Tiles are representative views of resources in your organization. Access to resources is managed through role-based access control assignment and permissions are inherited from the subscription down to the resource. Giving access to a dashboard doesn't automatically assign permissions to the resources shown on the dashboard. For more information about permissions to shared dashboards and role-based access control for resources, see [Share Azure dashboards by using Role-Based Access Control](azure-portal-dashboard-share-access.md).
