How to use your dashboard

Access

The site host dashboard is your central hub for managing EV chargers, revenue, users, and more. Your dashboard can be accessed from any modern web browser. When in doubt, we recommend Google Chrome

The site host dashboard is currently optimized for desktop, laptop, and tablet computers. It is not compatible with mobile phone browsers.

Layout & Functions

Once logged into your account, you will see the Overview page. The screenshot below is marked up to highlight key areas of your site host dashboard. Note that the screen adapts for smaller displays.

The sidebar on the left-hand side of the dashboard is your main navigation to switch between different pages. On smaller displays, this sidebar toggles on and off via the triple bar icon on the top lefthand corner.

If you manage multiple sites, use the location switcher to display data for a specific location. Or select All locations to show data for all the sites you manage. On large screens, the location switcher is on the lefthand sidebar. On smaller screens, the location switcher appears as a dropdown menu at the top righthand side, beside account settings.

The dashboard content area is where the information and controls for each page of the dashboard will be displayed.
