Hey @Visal-Som30! I'm here to help you with deploying Superset and sharing dashboards with stakeholders. Let's get started!

To deploy Superset and share a dashboard with stakeholders for view-only access, follow these steps:

1. Install and Configure Superset:

   • You can install Superset on a server by following these steps:
     • Install OS dependencies.
     • Set up a Python virtual environment.
     • Install Superset using pip.
     • Configure Superset with necessary environment variables.
     • Initialize the database and create an admin user.
     • Run Superset to start the web server. Detailed instructions can be found here ^[1].

2. Configure Public Access:

   • To allow stakeholders to view dashboards without logging in, add the following setting to your config.py file:

     PUBLIC_ROLE_LIKE = "Gamma"

   • This grants anonymous users Gamma-like permissions, enabling them to view dashboards without needing to log in ^[2].

3. Share Dashboards:

   • Use the "Share" menu in the dashboard interface to copy the dashboard URL or send it via email. This can be done by clicking on "Copy dashboard URL" to copy the link to your clipboard or "Share dashboard by email" to open your email client with a pre-filled message containing the dashboard link ^[3].

These steps will help you deploy Superset and share dashboards with stakeholders for view-only access.

@Visal-Som30 I was asked this question a month and a half ago. Turns out, Superset is an absolute monster to try to get running in Production.

Highly recommend going with Metabase if your looking for a better free and option.

Took me less than 3 hours to do what you need with Metabase.

Versus over 30+ hours and no results with Superset.

Completely agree, Metabase was really quick for production.
