Apps & Dashboards

Apps & Dashboards owns Workspace experiences, their data boundaries, and the paths that publish views or deliver reports.

Apps & Dashboards presents data and work a Workspace already owns. An App opens installed software. A Dashboard saves a view. Reads, writes, and report sends keep their own checks.

Boundary

Apps & Dashboards owns the experience and its delivery. Records & Lists owns the Records it reads. Installable Products owns Product installation. Labs & Modeling owns the study evidence that may support a release. A working view does not prove a successful writeback or report delivery. Each outcome needs its own result read back.

Services

Apps & Dashboards has two entry points for understanding an experience. Start with its saved form, then inspect its data and effects. The Console opens these experiences at /apps and /dashboards.
