How to create a dashboard without login

I'm trying to create card and a dashboard... have a few issues.

  1. How do I create a dashboard with a web link that doesn't require a login? I want to display these on unmanned screens.

  2. Why don't I see the other options in the case below? If I select a plot I can set the x axis, but the y axis is greyed out. Only table works.

Hey there!

Sharing dashboards with a public link that doesn't require a login is something we're actively discussing on GitHub. You can add your support for that feature here.

As for the grayed-out options, Metabase tries to deter you from selecting visualization options that don't seem to make sense for your current table or result-set, but you can still select those options.

If I select a plot I can set the x axis, but the y axis is greyed out. Only table works.

Do you mean if you open up the chart options for the scatterplot visualization type, the drop-down for the y-axis is grayed-out? If so, this might mean your result table only contains one numeric field. For scatterplots, Metabase expects numeric fields for both the y and x axis.

I hope that helps!
