How to Create a Dashboard in Salesforce Lightning and Add It to the Home Page

The sales director at Ridgeline Supply wants one pipeline view that every rep sees the moment they log in: open deals by stage, average deal size and the accounts with the most deals. Nobody should have to open the Dashboards tab to find it.

I built it in a Winter ’27 Developer Edition org from three existing reports, then placed it on the Sales app Home page with Lightning App Builder. The dashboard takes about 15 minutes; the Home page part takes five, unless you hit the folder error I hit.

You will be able to create a dashboard in Salesforce Lightning, choose a chart that stays readable, share it through a folder and put it on the Home page for one app.
