It is not possible to copy a dashboard URL from the browser. You can, however, create a URL that opens the current view of the dashboard, including tabs and [breakdown elements](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/KzO1fGsm6GUEygdn1yjLBA#gloss-breakdown-element "The values for a breakdown. For example, the Priority breakdown may have the elements Critical, High, and Low."). When the link is followed, the ServiceNow platform frame around the dashboard is not included.

## Before you begin

Role required: You must be able to access the dashboard.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllSelf-ServiceDashboards or AllPerformance AnalyticsDashboards.
2. Select the responsive dashboard with the URL that you want to copy.
3. **Optional:** Select a tab, breakdown, and breakdown element.
4. Select the context menu (![Context menu icon]()) and select Copy Dashboard URL.
{#t_CopyADashboardURL__steps_a1q_tnt_hs}

## Result

The dashboard URL is copied to your clipboard. Some browsers prompt you to copy the URL to your clipboard.

## What to do next

Share the URL with other users.

## Dashboard URL format {#ariaid-title2}

You can link to a Performance Analytics dashboard from your instance. Several URL
parameters enable you to specify aspects of the dashboard when the link is followed.
All dashboard URLs follow this format:

    https://<instance>.service-now.com/$dashboards.do?

.  
Note:  
Because dashboards are not limited to users of Performance Analytics,

    $dashboards.do

replaces

    $pa_dashboard

, although both strings work in dashboard URLs.

This base URL is followed by several optional URL query parameters.
