# Explore your data

The dashboards in Lansweeper Platform are flexible, fully integrated reporting tools that turn your data into insights you can act on. You can customize each dashboard to spotlight the metrics that matter most to you.

Filters help you refine your data to the exact insights you need, and alerts keep you informed of key metrics through email notifications. For sharing and analysis, dashboards include export options and tools for in-depth data exploration.

## Available datasets

Datasets are collections of fields gathered from various Platform modules. These fields are taken from custom views, making it easy to include the exact data points you need for detailed analysis and reporting.

Currently, four datasets are available:

- **Inventory**: contains asset data, featuring details such as `Manufacturer`, `IP address`, and `Last scan attempt`
- **Software**: contains software-related data, such as `Publisher` and `Install date`, useful for tracking applications
- **Users**: contains user information, such as `Display name` and `Employee ID`, which are ideal for linking users with assets or software
- **Vulnerabilities**: contains Risk insights information, including fields such as `Risk score` and `CVE`, to help assess potential vulnerabilities

## Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

### Can I combine fields from different datasets in my dashboards?

You can combine fields from the following datasets to create more detailed items:

- The **Inventory** and **Software** datasets are linked through the `assetKey` field, connecting asset data with software details.
- The **Inventory** and **Vulnerabilities** datasets are linked through the `assetKey` field, allowing you to view vulnerabilities with asset details.
- The **Inventory** and **Users** datasets are linked through the `Last user` field, connecting asset data with user information.

### Which dataset combinations will be supported in upcoming enhancements?

While not all datasets can currently be linked, upcoming enhancements will allow:

- The **Vulnerabilities** and **Software** datasets to be linked through the `Affected product` field.
