Use this article to get familiar with the Perchwell Dashboard, understand what each widget shows, choose and arrange which widgets display, and launch integrations from the Dashboard.

The Dashboard is the Perchwell page that brings market activity together with your contacts, saved searches, tags, and listings in one view, so you see what has changed. Click Dashboard in the top navigation bar, near the upper left, to open the Dashboard from anywhere in Perchwell.

To go straight to a listing, agent, or contact from the Dashboard, type an address, MLS ID, name, or email into the Search field in the upper right of the top navigation. Universal Search Bar explains what you find there and how to open it.

Each Dashboard widget displays a specific type of information. Together they give you a quick view across several areas of Perchwell.

The Hot Sheets widget on the Dashboard tracks new and updated listing activity from current MLS data and updates automatically, which means you do not have to rerun a search to see it. There are two types of Hot Sheets:

Add a Hot Sheet to the Dashboard walks through creating both types step by step. For how many Hot Sheets fit on a Dashboard, how far back a timeframe reaches, and what counts as off-market activity, see Dashboard FAQ.

The Contacts widget on the Dashboard lists the people you have added to Perchwell, and clicking a name opens their Contact Detail Page in a new tab. Sort the Contacts widget by Name or Recently Created.

Learn how to add, import, and group contacts in Create and Manage Your Contacts in Perchwell.

The Saved Searches widget on the Dashboard lists your Saved Searches, and clicking one runs that search in the same tab. Click your browser's back button to return to the Dashboard. Sort the Saved Searches widget by Name or Recently Updated.

Manage Your Saved Searches covers renaming, editing, and deleting a Saved Search, and setting up its email alerts.

The Tags widget on the Dashboard lists your Tags, the folders of listings you organize, track for status and price updates, and share with clients. Click a Tag to open its public page in a new tab. Sort the Tags widget by Name or # of Properties.

Members who came from a legacy platform may know Tags as listing carts. Find Familiar Features by Their Perchwell Names maps the other legacy names to their Perchwell equivalents.

Tags Page Overview explains how Tags hold listings, how My Tags and Client Tags differ, and how to work with Tags on the Tags page.

The Listings widget on the Dashboard shows listings from your own up to every listing in the MLS. Click a listing to open its Listing Detail Page in a new tab.

If your MLS uses Perchwell for listing entry, a pencil icon appears next to each listing when the Listings widget is set to My Listings. Click it to open the listing in Add/Edit. If your MLS connects ShowingTime, a ShowingTime icon appears next to the listing. Click it to open ShowingTime for that listing and manage showing details, including availability, access instructions, appointment requests, and feedback.

When the Listings widget is set to MLS Listings, Brokerage Listings, or Office Listings, a tag icon appears instead. Click the tag icon to add the listing to a Tag.

Find Listings in the Listings Widget covers choosing whose listings you see, the status and activity filters, finding a listing that is missing, and the quick actions available on each listing.

Choose and arrange your Dashboard widgets from Manage widgets, in the top right corner of the Dashboard. Click the Manage widgets button to pick which widgets display, then drag a widget into the position you want.

Customize Your Dashboard covers adding, removing, and reordering widgets, and sorting the list in each widget.

Launch an integration from the Integrations panel, which sits on the right side of the Dashboard and holds the tools and pages your MLS connects to Perchwell.

The integration opens outside Perchwell, so the Dashboard stays as you left it.

The Integrations panel lists only the integrations your MLS has enabled for your account, which means the panel is the accurate list of what you have. Commonly connected integrations include:

ShowingTime also opens from the Listings widget, on listings that belong to you.

Your MLS may connect others, such as tools for public records and tax data, market analytics, or an MLS announcement page.

For the integrations your own MLS offers and what each one does, see Access Integrations from the Dashboard or a Listing.
