Publisher Dashboard
The Publishing Center Dashboard functions as a dynamic and insightful interface, offering you a quick and comprehensive overview of your publishing activities and the performance metrics of your items. Remember, this Publishing Center can only be accessed if you have the add-on Publisher license purchased for your tenant and the Publisher seat assigned to you.
For New Users
Upon your initial access to the Publishing Center and prior to publishing any items, you will encounter a quick start guide prominently displayed on your dashboard. This guide is designed to facilitate your initial steps in publishing your first item. You can simply click the "Start Here" button to commence your publishing journey. In this initial state, your dashboard presents a simplified view, without performance analytics until you publish items. More details here.
