Use **Feed** when people should be able to follow recent activity without leaving the dashboard.

This widget helps the dashboard stay connected to real activity, not only charts and totals.

## Navigation

Open a dashboard, enter edit mode if needed, then choose **Add widget**.

Use **Feed** when you want an activity timeline on the dashboard.

## When to use it

The Feed widget appears as a scrolling activity area on the dashboard.

It can be shaped around selected channels and selected activity types.

## Add the widget

1. Open a dashboard.
2. Click **Add widget**.
3. Choose **Feed**.

## Configure the feed

When the widget opens:

1. Enter the widget name.
2. Select the channels that should feed into the widget.
3. Choose which activity types should be included.
4. Add hashtag filtering if needed.
5. Save the widget.

The widget can be shaped around activity such as:

- reports
- alerts
- people updates
- tasks

## When to use Feed

Use **Feed** when:

- activity matters as much as metrics
- users need a recent operational timeline
- the dashboard should stay connected to post and alert traffic from selected channels

## Tips

- Choose only the channels that matter for the dashboard.
- Use hashtags to reduce noise.
- Pair this widget with summary widgets when the dashboard needs both context and data.



Use the Feed widget to show channel activity, posts, alerts, reports, people updates, and task-related activity inside a dashboard.

![Image annotation page](/docs/data-sources/image-annotation-01.png)

Open a dataset, then click an image to open this page.

This page is where you review one image, work on labels, and move between images without going back.

## Auto annotation

Use the button at the top when you want the system to help with labels.

- **Generic Model** runs the general auto annotation option
- **Custom Model** runs the custom auto annotation option
- **Batch Custom Model** runs the custom option on more images
- **Pallet Geometry & Nails** helps with pallet structure and nail labels

The main button uses the option that is currently selected.

## Auto detection options

Open **Annotation** on the left when you want to change how auto annotation works.

![Generic model settings](/docs/data-sources/image-annotation-02.png)

### Generic model

Use **Generic model** when you want the system to find common objects from your label list.

- choose the detection model
- choose which labels to include
- add simple label descriptions if needed
- adjust how strict the results should be

This is usually the easiest place to start.

![Custom model settings](/docs/data-sources/image-annotation-03.png)

### Custom model

Use **Custom model** when you already trained a model for this data source.

- pick the trained model
- adjust confidence
- adjust overlap filter
- set how many boxes can be added for each label

This is usually better when the generic option is not accurate enough.

![Click To Annotate settings](/docs/data-sources/image-annotation-04.png)

### Click To Annotate

Use **Click To Annotate** when you want help on one object at a time.

- choose the label on the left
- hold **Option**
- click the object in the image

If **Classify clicked objects** is on, the system tries to decide the label for you. If it is off, it uses the label you selected on the left.

### Included labels

Use **Included labels** to choose which labels the system should work with.

If you do not need every label, keep only the ones you want. This usually gives cleaner results.

### Label descriptions

You can add short words or phrases for each label.

This helps the system understand what each label means.

### Results

You can make the result more loose or more strict.

- **Confidence**: lower finds more objects, higher keeps only stronger matches
- **Overlap filter**: removes duplicate boxes
- **Max boxes per label**: limits how many boxes are added

### Request mode

You can choose how the result is returned.

- **Sync** shows the result here right away
- **Async** finishes in the background and saves when ready

## View

Use the **View** section on the left to change how you look at the image.

- **Turn selection off/on** changes whether you are selecting labels
- **Show active only** shows only the label you are working on

## Actions

Use the **Actions** section on the left for common image work.

- **Include zone** adds an area to include
- **Exclude zone** adds an area to ignore
- **Annotation** opens annotation options
- **Shortcuts** shows keyboard shortcuts
- **Copy labels** copies labels to other images
- **Bulk edit labels** updates labels in bulk
- **Delete image** removes the image

## Labels

Use the **Labels** section on the left to work with your label list.

- click a label to make it active
- the number next to each label shows how many of that label are in the image
- **Configure labels** opens the dataset label list

## Image list

The images on the right help you move through the dataset.

- click another image to open it
- the highlighted image is the one you are working on now
- the count at the top shows how many images are in the list

## Read next

Open one dataset image to add and update labels in one place.

Use **Shortcuts** when the dashboard should also work as a launch point for the rest of the workflow.

This widget is helpful when people often need to jump from monitoring into action.

## Navigation

Open a dashboard, enter edit mode if needed, then choose **Add widget**.

Use **Shortcuts** when one dashboard should connect people to the next place they need to go.

## When to use it

The Shortcuts widget appears as a list or group of links on the dashboard.

Each shortcut can point to a different destination, depending on the shortcut type you choose.

## Add the widget

1. Open a dashboard.
2. Click **Add widget**.
3. Choose **Shortcuts**.

## Configure the shortcuts

In the setup flow, add one or more shortcut items.

Depending on the shortcut type, you can link to:

- another dashboard
- a form
- a document
- a direct web link

You can also:

- give each shortcut a title
- add a short description
- choose whether the target opens in the same tab or a new tab
- reorder the shortcut list

## When to use Shortcuts

Use **Shortcuts** when:

- the dashboard is part of a larger workflow
- people often need to move from monitoring into action
- one dashboard should connect users to forms, reference material, or related dashboards

## Tips

- Keep the list focused.
- Write labels that make the destination obvious.
- Use this widget near the top of dashboards that act like team home pages.



Use the Shortcuts widget to add fast links to dashboards, forms, documents, or external links inside a dashboard.
