Note: The following rules apply for sharing dashboards:

• User created dashboard folders and its contents are only visible to the user who created it. If this folder need to be visible to other users, we recommend:
  • using a shared account.
  • using export/import mechanism to create the folder for that user.
• System dashboard folders are owned by FortiSIEM. Any changes to those dashboards may be lost during upgrade, if FortiSIEM also decides to change those dashboards.
