Assign correct permission to the dashboard so the relevant people can see it.
Change layout to the single-column layout!
Add your prefered gadget(s).
Switch to wallboard mode and copy URL in the browser.
Step 2. Create Confluence Page
Open the Confluence page and add the iFrame macro.
Put URL from the Wallboard and customize the size.
Save page and share with your team.
