Hello @Mayad_Koujah

Okay, the "My Lab" dashboard is not available by default.

We need to follow the steps as per the below Lab Guide & it will help us to create this dashboard.

Access the CTFd URL  
Click on Lab Guide

In this as part of 6.1 you will see this step :

So you need to follow the Lab Guide, complete the instructions and then move to Challenges.

But before this need to complete previous lab instructions in 4 & 5.

Thanks!!

@Tortoise how about this? I’ve been sitting all day trying to figure the telemetry and it says all my options are incorrect.
