How to create a new dashboard from a published package using the "data sets" functionality.

You can also just add a Framework Manager Package as a selected datasource without requiring a dataset.

Steps to create a data set:

1. Navigate to your package and click on the ellipsis next to your package name and choose "Create data set".





2. Populate the data set by choosing which columns you would like in your data set.




Now save your data set.

4. You can now create dashboard based on this data set
