What exactly is this supposed to be asking for? What do you want non-admins to see? Please be as specific as you can. I'm not a mind-reader.

Hi,

Sorry I wasn't more Clear.

So the Non-Admin Dashboard will have the same layout as the Admin Dashboard Layout .

Obviously if they did not have access to certain elements it would not show up in the dashboard. Example : access to see users, Then they would'nt have that field.
Only permissions they have access to would show in the dashboard.

we mainly use the history of what others have edited or created. otherwise i would also apply for this option.

I would also recomend that feature too.
It´s strange that users that i give any permissions to manage any part in Snipe-IT in their company don´t see the dashboard.
But I won´t give full admin rights to anyone who is managing parts for some reasons

i would also love to have 'admin' dashboard for 'non-admin' users :)

Much like #2419...

That would be very useful; a perfect go-to would be a separate permission that allows users or groups to see the dashboard.

Does the Activity report section under "reports" accomplish this goal for you?

+1 for this, and just to illustrate what is requested here.

I have given some users the ability to add/assign assets (but not delete), and no admin rights and when they log in their landing page is there user account page. Whereas when I log in as admin, I get this nice dashboard with an overview. Allowing specific users that help with asset management access to this dashboard could be helpful.

ADMIN LANDING PAGE

NON-ADMIN LANDING PAGE (but a user that can work with assets)

This feature is very recommended. Please add

I imagine this gets really complicated because even just thinking about it at a surface level because each of the things on this dashboard seem to overlap across multiple permissions. For example the "asset by status" pie chart would, I imagine, require both permission to view assets (to calculate and show the user aggregate counts) and permission to view the different status values (for the sections in the pie chart) in order to be visible (others also have clickable elements that require different permissions). Others may be more complicated, such as locations and/or asset categories tables below, because their tables include a count of each type of asset in that category.

I imagine which items in this dashboard require which permissions could potentially be broken out and defined more granularly, but I imagine that might also require a lot of work to define (and maybe significant re-engineering of how the tables and their various column options work) in a way that also ensures that there are no new avenues for information leaking to people who dont have permission to see them.

Maybe someone who's actually significantly contributed to snipeIT can clarify further, but I suspect allocation of developer time and/or prioritizing more helpful features for customers might be one reason why these features are currently lumped into the single admin only permission. I would love to get a snipeIT developer's take on how much effort/what kind of might be required to implement this dashboard using more granular permissions in this way.

The Question is - do you only want to see the dashboard or should the users be able to use it by clicking the elements?
Only to present the data and showing the dashboard should be possible with a few lines of coding, but if the users should be able to click - for example on "people" - you have to adust every view.
Maybe its an alternative idea to "outsource" the dashboard to Grafana or something else. I think it should be possible with some sql-Statements.

Hi Chris
I acknowledge the complexity of implementing element-clicking based on user privileges. While it's a crucial feature. How can we achieve if only want to present in the Dashboard as of now?

This feature is very much required. users can only view the dashboard to visualize overall asset picture
