## Create an Analysis

It’s possible to change an existing dashboard and customize existing visuals and also add your own visuals with your own business logic. The first step in order to have an editable dashboard is to create an Analysis from the dashboard deployed in your account. This is effectively a branch from the main template and any dashboard you publish from here will be separate from your templated dashboard.
