Add Tile Sets to Dashboards

For System Administrators

Being updated. This article was recovered from the old Help Center. Its steps and screenshots show the older Dynamics 365 interface.

It’s simple for a System Administrator (or System Customizer) to setup and implement Tiles in your organization. If they are familiar with adding Web Resources to Dashboards it’s a breeze, but also only a few steps for those not initiated. As a high-level overview:

  • Create at least one Tile Set record first or open an existing one (for example we’re creating one called “Tile Set (Link To)”)
  • Add a few Tiles to the Tile Set for illustrative purposes
  • Copy the CopyID GUID for use later

  • Add a Web Resource to a new or existing Dashboard specifying: Web resource = miiia_/tiles/d365_tiles.html
  • Check the Enable for mobile if you wish to render in native mobile apps
  • Add the Copy Id (copied from your Tile Set record) as the Custom Parameter
