Import Claude dashboards as Holistics data apps

Under development

Importing Claude dashboards is under development. Details on this page may change before launch.

Overview​

Prototype a dashboard in Claude on your Holistics data, then import it into Holistics as a data app that you can keep iterating on. The app keeps the dashboard's layout, styles, and charts, and runs live queries with each viewer's permissions, so you can share it with your team.

What you can import

Only Claude dashboards (the artifacts that load data from connectors and refresh when opened) can be imported. Plain HTML artifacts with numbers written into the page aren't supported. If you need them, contact us.

Before you start​

You'll need:

  • The Holistics MCP server connected in Claude, using the Reporting connection URL.
  • The holistics-reporting plugin installed in Claude. It gives Claude the instructions for converting a dashboard.
  • Permission to create data apps in Holistics (Admin or Analyst).

Import a dashboard​

To import, you ask Claude to export the dashboard to Holistics:

  1. Open the Claude chat where you built the dashboard.
  2. Ask Claude to export the dashboard, for example: "Export this dashboard to Holistics as a data app."
  3. Claude converts the dashboard, saves it to Holistics, and replies with the app's link and a summary of what carried over and what didn't.
  4. Open the app in Holistics and review anything the summary flagged before sharing.

What carries over​

When you import a dashboard, Holistics maps Claude's components to native Data app features. Here is what carries over and how it is handled:

From the Claude dashboardIn the data app
Data from HolisticsLive queries that run as the viewer
Filters and their default valuesApp filters with the same defaults
Layout, styles, and custom chartsKept as they are
Static data, like files uploaded to the chatYour choice: copied into the app, or replaced with a Holistics dataset

If you copy static data into the app, it won't refresh, and every viewer sees all of it, since permissions don't apply.

Things to know​

  • The app and the Claude dashboard are separate. Changes to one don't affect the other, and importing again creates a new app. To change an imported app, edit it in Holistics.
  • The app may not match exactly. Converting a dashboard into a data app can change some details, and two imports of the same dashboard may differ slightly. Review the app and Claude's summary before sharing.
