- [Instructor] For managers who study the metrics…of their teams,…we can build apps in Salesforce…that display Analytics and Dashboards.…Let's go ahead and see how we can accomplish this.…The first thing we're going to do is,…we're going to make an app for our Analytics…and Dashboards.…Let's go ahead and see how to do that.…We're signed in, we're starting from the Home tab,…click on the gear cog icon…and then click Setup.…A new tab opens and then we can search over here…for the word app,…then we'll click on the App Manager.…From here we'll click on New Lightning App…and we'll give it a name.…
I'll just call this A&D,…just stands for Analytics and Dashboards.…A unique name auto populates…and I'm going to put in a description.…And on my computer Desktop,…I have an icon for this particular app,…we'll go ahead and upload that.…I'll navigate to my Desktop and I'll select it.…This adds a bit of branding.…Now, we also have brand colors.…I can use the Color Picker if I'd like,…or I can manually enter in the color value.…
For our brand we have a color value and that's ffa500,…
