The available data sources are much like a library. First you add a data source to a dashboard, then you associate the data source with one or more metrics displayed under Metrics on the left side of the Dashboards window.

Data sources are dashboard-wide and you can apply them to any metrics you want. (For details about the available metrics, see Metrics for dashboards.)

If a data source cannot be applied to a metric, the metric will be dimmed on the left side of the window.
