# Create Page / Dashboard

## Creating Attached and Detached Pages

## Overview

Unattached Pages may be attached to a Folder after creation, not just during.

## Building a Page/Dashboard

1. From the [**Page** **Designer**](/v9/docs/pages-dashboards), design the **Page** as desired by dragging and dropping controls such as from the **Report** **Viewer**, a [**Simple Tile**](https://documentation.decisions.com/step-library/docs/create-tile-data), a [**Simple** **Bars** **Chart**](https://documentation.decisions.com/v9/docs/adding-charts-portal-page) from the **Toolbox** tab into the workspace.![](https://cdn.document360.io/6ef8bcc1-6489-4486-9ad1-83acff7e5df0/Images/Documentation/image-1732137324638.png)
2. Select each added control and configure its settings in the **Properties Panel**.  
  
Since Report Viewers, Tiles, and Charts source their data from outside the Page from sources like Reports, Flows, Matrices, built in data, etc., this example sources built-in Account data available in every instance.
