A data analyst has several worksheets ready and wants to add one to a new dashboard they have just created. What is the most common and direct method to add an existing worksheet to the dashboard canvas?
From the dashboard view, drag a data field from the Data pane directly onto the canvas.
Right-click on the worksheet's tab at the bottom of the workbook and select 'Add to Dashboard'.
Drag the desired worksheet from the Dashboard pane on the left onto the dashboard canvas.
Select 'Dashboard > Add Sheet' from the top menu and choose the worksheet.
The correct method for adding an existing worksheet to a dashboard is to drag it from the list of sheets in the Dashboard pane (typically on the left) and drop it onto the dashboard canvas. Another valid method is to double-click the sheet in that same list. Dragging a data field onto the canvas creates a new worksheet within the dashboard, rather than adding an existing one. The 'Dashboard > Add Sheet' menu option does not exist. Right-clicking a worksheet tab at the bottom of the workbook provides options for managing the sheet itself (like renaming or deleting), not for adding it to a dashboard.
