# Dashboard settings
|
|
|
|
You can configure your [Monitoring dashboard](../index.md) to
|
|
display the time zone of your choice, and the links of your choice.
|
|
|
|
To configure these settings you must have Manage Project
|
|
Operations [permissions](../../../user/permissions.md).
|
|
|
|
## Change the dashboard time zone
|
|
|
|
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/214370) in GitLab 13.1.
|
|
|
|
By default, your monitoring dashboard displays dates and times in your local
|
|
time zone, but you can display dates and times in UTC format. To change the
|
|
time zone:
|
|
|
|
1. Sign in as a user with Manage Project Operations [permissions](../../../user/permissions.md).
|
|
1. Navigate to **Settings > Operations**, and scroll to
|
|
**Metrics Dashboard**.
|
|
1. In the **Dashboard timezone** select box, select *User's local timezone*
|
|
or *UTC*:

|
|
1. Click **Save changes**.
|
|
|
|
## Link to an external dashboard
|
|
|
|
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/57171) in GitLab 12.0.
|
|
|
|
You can add a button on your monitoring dashboard that links directly to your
|
|
existing external dashboards:
|
|
|
|
1. Sign in as a user with Manage Project Operations [permissions](../../../user/permissions.md).
|
|
1. Navigate to **Settings > Operations**, and scroll to
|
|
**Metrics Dashboard**.
|
|
1. In **External dashboard URL**, provide the URL to your external dashboard:
|
|
|
|
![External Dashboard Setting](img/dashboard_external_link_v13_1.png)
|
|
|
|
1. Click **Save changes**.
|
|
|
|
GitLab displays a **View full dashboard** button in the top right corner of your
|
|
[monitoring dashboard](../../../ci/environments/index.md#monitoring-environments)
|
|
which opens the URL you provided:
|
|
