How to create a custom analytics dashboard in Adalo?

Step 1: Set Up Data Collections

Head over to the Adalo editor and find the "Database" section.
Click on the "+ Collection" button to create a new Collection. Give it a name like "AnalyticsLogs".
Add the properties you need to track, like "User Id", "Action", "Timestamp", or any other custom properties you think are important.

Step 2: Create a Screen for the Dashboard

Go to the "Screens" section and add a new screen. Name it "Analytics Dashboard".
Pick a layout that works for you, maybe start with a blank screen so you can customize it just the way you want.

Step 3: Add a List to Display Data

Drag a "Custom List" component onto your "Analytics Dashboard" screen.
Link this list to the "AnalyticsLogs" collection.
Customize each list item to show the data points you care about, like the action name and timestamp.

Step 4: Implement Data Logging

Go to the actions or events you want to track on different screens of your Adalo app.
Add a new "Create" action that logs data into the "AnalyticsLogs" collection every time an event happens.

Assign properties like "User Id", "Action", and "Timestamp" for each event.

Step 5: Add Filters and Sorting

Select the list component on the "Analytics Dashboard" screen.
Set up filters to narrow down the data, like by specific user or date range.
Set default sorting to organize the data chronologically or by specific actions.

Step 6: Include Visual Representations

Go to the component marketplace and add chart components like bar charts, pie charts, or line charts to your "Analytics Dashboard".
Configure these components to show data from the "AnalyticsLogs" collection.

Set up axes, labels, and any other necessary configurations to make the data easy to understand.

Step 7: Test the Dashboard

Preview the app to make sure all the data is being captured and displayed correctly.
Look for any issues and fine-tune the filters, sorting, and visual components.

Step 8: Fine-Tune User Interface

Customize the layout, colors, and overall design of the "Analytics Dashboard" screen to make it user-friendly.
Add extra components like headers, buttons, or text to improve readability and navigation.
