Hi All,

I have created a dashboard. But at the end of the dashboard i need to add footnotes, which is nothing but a static text. But i dont find any feature to add such a section. Even if the text can be added as tooltip to one of the visualisation it will be fine

Welcome! 😃

You can use a Markdown visualisation for that.
