Embed a Dashboard into Salesforce

You can embed a dashboard tab into a Salesforce® tab.

When Salesforce users open the tab that contains your dashboard, they must log in to the GoodData Portal first. Users can log in:

• Automatically: You have deployed Single Sign On (SSO) for Salesforce. SSO allows you to access embedded dashboards without having to log in to the GoodData Portal.

• Via the GoodData Portal login: SSO is not deployed.

Acquire this information from your Salesforce administrator.

For more information, see Configure Identity Provider with Salesforce and Analyzing Customer Data from Salesforce.

Steps:

1. While on the dashboard that you want to embed, click the Gear menu, and click Embed. The embedding dialog opens.
2. Copy the dashboard URI: 
   
   
     
3. Use this URI as the RelayState query parameter to your IdP-Initiated Login URL (you can find it in the Connected Apps details):
