März 2026 * * ![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 4 Minuten Lesedauer The CMDB success advisor for Data Foundations dashboard enables CMDB administrators to identify and address data quality issues specific to principal classes in the Configuration Management Database (CMDB). Wichtig: When you select a segment or count on a chart from a CMDB success advisor dashboard, the KPI Details page opens. On the page, you can analyze how a specific metric trends over time. Additionally, the Remediation actions panel appears when remediation actions are available for that card. Use the panel to improve the quality of CMDB. To learn more, see [KPI Details](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=kpi-details&version=australia&pubname=australia-now-intelligence&ft:locale=en-US) and [Improving CMDB data quality for Data Foundations](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/AQDb2sUr1E5IdrwHKT_mlA "The Remediation actions panel available for a chart in the CMDB success advisor dashboard for Data Foundations suggests targeted actions to address Data Foundations data quality issues and improve the overall quality of your Configuration Management Database (CMDB)."). ## Access the dashboard {#cmdb-sa-df-dashboard__section_ehq_vml_k3c} To open the dashboard, select View insights for Data Foundations on the CMDB success advisor landing page. See [Access CMDB success advisor](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/Ijp4HtjdQrbTx6bMnvbPtQ "You can access CMDB success advisor within the CMDB Workspace for both setting up and managing application-specific dashboards. Depending on your progress, you can either begin the setup or access the dashboard to monitor and manage targeted configuration items (CIs) for an application."). Hinweis: The CMDB success advisor for Data Foundations dashboard is available only after the setup process is complete. For more information, see [Set up CMDB success advisor for Data Foundations](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/KZKRCdRx9TurWuevPkKbVg "Use the CMDB success advisor application to configure and manage the CMDB success advisor for Data Foundations."). ## Required roles {#cmdb-sa-df-dashboard__section_kwl_vml_k3c} {#cmdb-sa-df-dashboard__table_zjj_xwy_hgc__entry__2} | Role | Description | |-|-| | sn_cmdb_admin | Required to access the Data Foundations dashboard. | | pa_viewer | Required to filter data by principal classes. | | pa_data_collector | Required to view the last updated data timestamp on the dashboard. | [Tabelle : 1.

Use the dashboard to identify and resolve data quality issues within the CMDB through dedicated sections, filters, indicators, and visual reports. Gain valuable insights into CMDB performance related to Data Foundations. Targeted CMDB metrics focus remediation efforts. Regularly monitor these metrics and follow suggested remediation actions to systematically improve CMDB data quality over time. Wichtig: The dashboard data is filtered based on the Selected principal classes and Date range filters.
