On the Canvas page, click on the plus button in the top right hand corner of the page

A pop up window will appear. Add a name for your Canvas

Once you have given your Canvas a name, click on the ‘Create’ button

You will be taken to the Dash Builder. 

To add tiles to your Canvas, click on the ‘Edit’ button in the top left hand corner.

This will now change to ‘Save’ and ‘New tile’ 

Click on ‘New tile’ and a toolbox will appear down the left hand side of the page.

Just like our forms, you can drag and drop the tiles from the toolbox to the Canvas.
