Build a live dashboard of key metrics, charts, and filters from an API. It refreshes automatically, supports export, and shows only what the data really contains. Store anything that needs to persist in Replit Database.

​
Best for

  • Product managers who need a dashboard people can review, not a screenshot.
  • Ops and data leads who need a private dashboard that stays up to date from an API.

​
Before you start

Write down the decision the dashboard should support. Have the API URL ready, or use the DummyJSON endpoints below.
For testing purposes, you can try with these free DummyJSON API endpoints:
  • Orders: https://dummyjson.com/carts?limit=0
  • Customers: https://dummyjson.com/users?limit=0
  • Catalog: https://dummyjson.com/products?limit=0
  • Categories: https://dummyjson.com/products/categories

​
Prompt the agent

​
What to expect

Agent loads the data, picks summary metrics and charts, and adds filters. Verify at least one number against the source. If you used DummyJSON, pick an order and open https://dummyjson.com/carts/{id} to confirm the totals match. Toggle a filter and confirm every card and chart updates. Export once and check a row against the API.

​
Make it work for you

​
Troubleshooting

  • The API is unavailable or the shape looks wrong: check the URL and that the response includes the fields you expect. For a quick test, use the DummyJSON endpoints above.
  • Numbers look different than expected: ask Agent to show the query or transformation, then verify at least one number against the source.
  • Filters don’t update the charts: ask Agent to connect each filter to both summary cards and chart data. If the dashboard is slow, cache API responses or reduce records loaded on startup.
