Adding a new menu item in Palo Alto Networks App

[sworton]

Hi,

I want to create my own dashboard, a customised version of the ones in the app but when I try to use the built in searches outside of the app they don't work & when I use the clone option in the app there doesn't seem to be any way to add my new dashboard to the menu system in the app? So for instance under Operations there would be the normal ones and my new one?

I'm pretty new to this, am I missing something obvious?

Thanks for any help.

While in the Palo Alto app: Navigate to Settings > User Interface > Navigation menus

Click on "default" to open up the Navigation menu XML. From there, you can add your custom view. The view name will be the name of the dashboard in the configuration file. You can verify the dashbord name by Navigating to Settings > User Interface > Views.

Check out the following documentation for more information:

Example Navigation XML

<nav search_view="search">
  <view name="search" default="true" />
  <view name="datasets" />
  <view name="reports" />
  <view name="alerts" />
  <view name="dashboards" />
  <view name="my_custom_palo_dashboard" />
</nav>
