### Dashboards
While there is an API and presentation layer for dashboards released in version 1.2.0-beta1+, it is not recommended that you try to use Chronograf as a general purpose dashboard solution. The visualization around editing is under way and will be in a future release. Meanwhile, if you would like to try it out you can use `curl` or other HTTP tools to push dashboard definitions directly to the API. If you do so, they should be shown when selected in the application.
Version 1.2.0-beta6 introduces a UI for creating and editing dashboards. The dashboards support several visualization types including line graphs, stacked graphs, step plots, single statistic graphs, and line-single-statistic graphs.
Example:
```
curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
"cells": [
{
"queries": [
{
"label": "%",
"query": "SELECT mean(\"usage_user\") AS \"usage_user\" FROM \"telegraf\".\"autogen\".\"cpu\""
}
],
"type": "line"
}
],
"name": "dashboard name"
}' "http://localhost:8888/chronograf/v1/dashboards"
```
This feature is new in version 1.2.0-beta6. We recommend using dashboards in a non-production environment only. Please see the [known issues](#known-issues) section for known bugs, and, should you come across any bugs or unexpected behavior please open [an issue](https://github.com/influxdata/chronograf/issues/new).

* Chronograf requires users to hit the enter key to successfully delete a database on the ADMIN page: [#1068](https://github.com/influxdata/chronograf/issues/1068).
* Graphs on Chronograf's dashboards do not save `GROUP BY` tag clauses: [#1070](https://github.com/influxdata/chronograf/issues/1070).
* Graphs require InfluxQL functions and a `GROUP BY time()` clause for them to appear on Chronograf's dashboards.
