Hi,

Everytime I click on dashboard tab, I want to show the list of available dashboards.

Instead, the very first time I click on dashboard tab in kibana, it shows the page for creating a new dashboard. As you can see in the image below:

 ![new_dashboard](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/7/7/772a0d653ccaed7eda4803553281a3508e46dfb1.png)

If I click again on dashboard tab, I see the list of available dashboards.

How to solve this?

Thanks,  
Gianluca

What version of Kibana are you running? Does the `dashboard is empty` screen display even when you have Dashboards? Are you using Kibana spaces?

kibana 7.2.0  
Yes, 'dashboard is empty' screen displays even when I have dashboards.  
I use spaces, expecially this happens after I swiched space and I go on dashboards for the first time
