Which action should you take if a dashboard component is not displaying as expected?

If a dashboard component is not displaying as expected, verifying whether the component is set to "ready for use" is a crucial first step. This status check ensures that the component has been properly configured and is operational. If it is not set to "ready for use," the component will not function correctly, which could lead to it not appearing or displaying the wrong data.

This approach targets a common issue where configuration settings may not have been applied or saved correctly. Checking the readiness of the component typically resolves the issue without necessitating broader, disruptive actions, such as rebooting the entire application or changing user access credentials. These latter actions may not address the specific problem with the dashboard component and could introduce additional complications. Similarly, reassigning the creator may not be relevant unless there is a clear link to a permissions issue or lack of access associated with that creator. Focusing on the readiness status is a straightforward and direct method to troubleshoot display issues effectively.
