# Manage Your Sensor Dashboard
Verkada’s [Air Quality Sensors](https://docs.verkada.com/docs/air-quality-sensors-overview.pdf) dashboards enable you to easily view, analyze, and display sensor data across all of your sensors within your environments on a smart display or status screen. You can easily access these dashboards from an external device through the air quality dashboard live links. You can also share and pair dashboards with any browser-compatible device.
Using different tiles, you can add multiple view types to pages in your dashboard and automatically cycle through them in Verkada Command or on a monitor.
The hierarchy for sensor dashboards is **dashboards** > **pages** > **tiles**. You can have multiple dashboards in your organization, each with multiple pages, and each page can contain multiple tiles.

## Pair a dashboard
Dashboard pairing enables rapid deployment of Air Quality dashboards on smart TVs and displays that would otherwise be difficult to access via a link or keyboard. Pairing works by sharing a **Live Link** based on a successful synchronization, as described above.
{% hint style="warning" %}
Pairing a dashboard is currently only supported in US-based organizations.
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="info" %}
Anyone with access to the link (in the dashboard address bar) can open the dashboard on a different device. Ensure that the URL is hidden by default on your smart device, or on full screen if this is a security concern for you.
{% endhint %}
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**In Verkada Command, go to All Products > Air Quality.**
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
**Select a dashboard to view.**
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
**At the top right, click Pair.**
1. Set the duration for the link.
2. On your display, go to vkda.co/pair.
3. Enter the pairing code from your display to access the dashboard.
4. Click **Pair.**
{% hint style="warning" %}
Maximum link duration is 52 weeks.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
### Manage paired links
You can manage paired links as follows:
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**In Verkada Command, go to All Products > Admin.**
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
**Under Org Settings, scroll to Manage Shared Links.**
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
Alternatively, for quick access in the dashboard, go to **Share > Manage Shared Links** to be redirected to this page.

## FAQs
Who can create, edit and remove a dashboard?
[Org Admins](/air-quality/getting-started/roles-and-permissions-for-air-quality-sensors.md) can create, edit, and remove dashboards. They must also be a [Site Admin](/air-quality/getting-started/roles-and-permissions-for-air-quality-sensors.md) for the sites where the sensors are located. If you don’t have Site Admin permissions, you can’t view the tiles created in the dashboard. Learn more about the [Roles and Permissions for Air Quality Sensors](/air-quality/getting-started/roles-and-permissions-for-air-quality-sensors.md).
Who can view a dashboard?
A [Site Viewer](/air-quality/getting-started/roles-and-permissions-for-air-quality-sensors.md) can view dashboards; however, they can only see the sensors in their site(s). If they don’t have permission to view a sensor in the dashboard, the value is be empty.
You can also share and pair dashboards with live links just like cameras. See [Manage shared links](/air-quality/sensor-data/manage-your-sensor-dashboard.md) (above).
{% hint style="warning" %}
**Note**: Verkada supports multiple dashboards per organization. Dashboards are created per organization, not per user.
{% endhint %}
How often does the dashboard data update or refresh?
The data that is displayed on the dashboard updates every one (1) minute. This is a default setting and cannot be changed.
Can I share my dashboard publicly?
Yes! You can now share dashboard with live links just like cameras. See [Manage shared links](/air-quality/sensor-data/manage-your-sensor-dashboard.md) (above).
How do I display the dashboard on a larger screen?
To display the dashboard on a larger screen (TV or monitor), there must be a computer connected to the display, and that computer must be logged in to Verkada Command. From there, you can navigate to the dashboard and click **Live**, which will display the live view on the connected display.
Do the sensor tiles integrate with a Verkada Viewing Station or camera grid?
No, at this time, the sensor tiles and dashboard are standalone.
Can I add cameras to my sensor dashboards?
Currently, you can only add sensor information to sensor dashboards.
