Dashboard pages are pages you create in the Editor that only appear on your site’s dashboard.
Note: Dashboard pages only appear in your dashboard after you publish your site.
You can use dashboard pages to create a custom back office where you and your contributors can manage your business and the content in your Live database. Because only you and your contributors can access your dashboard, no other visitor to your site will be able to see or use these pages.
Important: Although non-contributor site visitors cannot access your dashboard pages, anyone can see any of your public page code, including the page code in dashboard pages.
You add dashboard pages to your site differently than you add regular pages (see below). Dashboard pages also do not appear on the Velo Sidebar; you can find them in the Dashboard Pages section of the Menus and Pages panel.
Dashboard pages can only be accessed via your dashboard. Neither you nor your visitors will see them in your published site.
Dashboard pages use the same settings as any other page on your site, including the look and feel, except for the following:
Functionally, dashboard pages support the same options as any other page on your site. You can:
elevate()

Let's say you run a real estate site. You have people who help you maintain the information about the properties you deal with. You have added these people as contributors to your site, and now you want to create back office pages that make it easier for them and you to manage the content in your Live database.
Here are some ideas of dashboard pages you could create:
On the Add menu, click Page, and then click Dashboard Page.
If the "Introducing Dashboard Pages" panel appears, click "Add Dashboard Page."
In the Dashboard Pages panel, give your new page a name.
To make your page available on your dashboard sidebar menu, make sure to publish your site.
Now you can build your page any way you like. Anything you would do on a regular page you can do on your dashboard page. You can add datasets and connect them to elements on your page. You can write code.
