Which statement accurately describes a characteristic of the dashboard?

Question

Options

• AWhen a dashboard navigation is created, destination widgets or views are not filtered.
• BAn alert can be created from the Alert list widget.
• CA metric configuration allows a custom set of metrics to display on widgets.
• DDashboards can only be added by installing management packs.

• A
  2% (1)
• B
  6% (3)
• C
  89% (42)
• D
  2% (1)

Explanation

Option C is correct because dashboards support metric configurations, which let you define a specific, customized subset of metrics to surface on individual widgets - giving you targeted visibility rather than showing all available data by default.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A is incorrect because when dashboard navigation is created, destination widgets or views are filtered - that's precisely the purpose of navigation: to pass context and filter criteria to the target.
• B is incorrect because the Alert list widget displays existing alerts; it doesn't provide functionality to create new alert definitions - that's done through alert configuration settings.
• D is incorrect because dashboards can be created directly by users; management packs are one optional source of pre-built dashboards, not the only way to add them.

Memory tip: Think of "metric configuration" as a lens - you're not changing the underlying data, just choosing which metrics the widget focuses on. If you remember that widgets are highly customizable through configuration, C becomes the natural choice among statements that otherwise misrepresent filtering, alert creation, and access methods.
