A heatmap dashboard is a report card-like central repository of all the data collection configurations and settings, options to create and manage views, heatmap reports, and so on. It essentially is the central place where you can generate heatmap reports<\/a>, manage heatmap data collection settings, and create and manage views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
