Locating the Dashboard instance ID

To open Klipfolio Klips at a specific dashboard, you must use the dashboard instance ID. The following steps show you how to locate a dashboard's instance ID.

  1. Select the dashboard in your Dashboard Library.
    Alternatively, you can select a dashboard from your list of active dashboards (in the left navigation sidebar, under Dashboards), click its 3-dot menu, and select About. 
  2. The dashboard ID is located at the end of the URL, for example https://app.klipfolio.com/tabs/view/12a2f123456fd12db123e12345ee1234 would have ID 12a2f123456fd12db123e12345ee1234.

 Note: You cannot share this dashboard instance ID with other users. Each dashboard instance ID is different.
