Hello community.

I have deployed a dashing-icinga2 in my icinga2 installation successfully, but a need has arisen, because we have several departments (CAU, CIBER…) and I would like to mount the same dashboard that shows only the resources that correspond to it according to their department and so far, I have only managed to get the dashboard to show all the content of Icinga since it is the same URL for all. Is there a way to deploy a different dashing-icinga2 for each of the departments?

Best regards.

I have managed to get dashing-icinga2 to show only the hosts and services of a particular hostgroup, through the api-rest permissions, with a filter applied inside the icinga api-user.conf file.

I just need to know if it is possible to deploy more than one dashing-icinga2 dashboard pointing to the same installation.

I currently have one mounted, the one that is mounted by default in the dashboard installation.

[http://localhost:8005/icinga2](http://localhost:8005/icinga2)

Would it be possible to create several?

[http://localhost:8005/dashboard1](http://localhost:8005/dashboard1)  
[http://localhost:8005/dashboard2](http://localhost:8005/dashboard2)  
[http://localhost:8005/dashboard3](http://localhost:8005/dashboard3)

Each one with its own api-user and filter.

I don’t know if this is possible.

Could you maybe show the same dashboard for all users but use different filters in shared navigation for module “monitoring”?

Restrictions for user CAU:  
monitoring/​filter/​objects: servicegroup\_name=CAUservices|hostgroup\_name=CAUhosts  
monitoring/​blacklist/​properties:

Restrictions for user CIBER:  
monitoring/​filter/​objects: servicegroup\_name=CIBERservices|hostgroup\_name=CIBERhosts  
monitoring/​blacklist/​properties:

Alternatively you could look at the icinga modules customdashboards and teamdashboards from this source: [https://github.com/RISE-GmbH](https://github.com/RISE-GmbH)

Thank you very much for your reply.

The first suggestion doesn’t work for me, because my boss doesn’t want the staff of one department to see the monitored items of a department other than their own.

But the modules customdashboard and teamdashboard could be very helpful for me.

Again thanks for your interest and help and I will inform you if with these indications I could solve this question.

Best regards.
