# Create or Edit a View & Section

### Creating and Configuring Widget Containers

After creating your first **dashboard** or **report**, you can organize your content using **widget containers**.

- In a **dashboard**, a widget container is called a **view**.
- In a **report**, a widget container is called a **section**.

Although their purpose differs slightly, **views** and **sections** are configured in the same way during editing:

- A **view** in a dashboard groups widgets that display data, possibly with user interactions through the app and asset filters.
- A **section** in a report corresponds to one or several pages of that report and is used in the table of content.

### Creating a New View or Section

When a new dashboard or report is created, the first widget container is automatically generated and named **“New View”** (or **“New Section”**).

To edit it:

1. Enter the **edit mode**.
2. Click the **pencil icon** next to the view or section name.

This opens the configuration panel where you can:

- **Rename** the view or section.
- **Add a description** to clarify its purpose.

### Managing Multiple Views or Sections

You can add additional views or sections as needed:

- Click **“Add View”** (or **“Add Section”**) to create a new one.
- Reorder them easily using **drag and drop** to adjust their display order.
