Hi Amplitude team!Can you please let me know the difference between Dashboards and Templates. Please give brief introduction of both.
Hi aneesanwar
I’m tempted to quote the chicken and an egg problem for explaining dashboards and templates here just because of the way Amplitude has built their workflow.
Both can be created from one another depending on your use case and some caveats.
Once you have a template created with a set of preconfigured parameters, you can recreate and save new dashboards at scale on any input parameter combination.
Dashboards are more or less a static way to consuming different charts in one place with the ability to change filters and see the changes in the filters to test out some analysis. You can save this newly filtered dashboard on top of the existing one if needed, but templates just provide a faster way to use preconfigured parameters.

Hope this helps.

Hi, I am doing a simple analysis : number of views for each pages of my website. So I use Segmentation but I always end up with a chart AND the table below. I want to display only the table (easier to read). Is it possible and how ? Thank you
We implemented first party tracking using the basic JS SDK on the browser and pointing the payload to our servers like this: amplitude.init(AMPLITUDE_API_KEY, { serverUrl: serverUrl, autocapture: { attribution: { excludeReferrers: [/domain1\.com$/, /domain2\.com$/], }, formInteractions: false, fileDownloads: false, }, });…
My Android app is primarily a background app. Does Amplitude track events for such an app? Please let me know.
here is the referance graph: https://app.amplitude.com/analytics/demo/chart/new/363tk5og In this graph, retention is currently being calculated based on the next day, but I want to analyze it based on the previous day instead. Example: For July 27, we should compare retention against July 26, not July 28. * So for 1-day…
