The Dashboard is the first screen you see after logging in to the Pickcel console. It gives you a live overview of your screens, content, and storage on a single screen. The data refreshes automatically; you can also force a refresh using the Refresh button in the top-right corner, which also shows when the dashboard was last refreshed.
