Operations Dashboard for ArcGIS brings together a common view of the systems and resources you manage. Monitor real-time data feeds for large-scale events or day-to-day operations on your desktop or tablet device. Create focused executive dashboards that integrate maps, charts, and graphs. Operations Dashboard uses operation views created in a Windows app and viewed in either the Windows app or in the browser. Portal for ArcGIS users can install and use the Windows app to connect to their portal and create and view operation views. The browser app is already part of your portal installation.
Your portal is already set up to distribute Operations Dashboard (Windows) using the executable from ArcGIS Online. When your portal users search for Operations Dashboard, they find an item on your portal that allows them to download and install Operations Dashboard from ArcGIS Online. Users who install the app from this location will get updated versions as they're released.
If, however, your users are unable to access ArcGIS Online, or if you need to use your company's certificate to sign the app, need control over the version of Operations Dashboard that your users are running, or need to restrict users to connect to only your portal, see Deploy Operations Dashboard to Portal for ArcGIS.
Deploy Operations Dashboard to Portal for ArcGIS
Deploy Operations Dashboard for ArcGIS to your Portal for ArcGIS to allow portal members to download Operations Dashboard from the portal instead of from ArcGIS Online. Deploying to your portal can be done in four steps: first, download the Operations Dashboard for ArcGIS Deployment Utility, then use the utility to generate the files you need to place on your portal, next copy them to your portal, and finally create an item on your portal that references your copy of Operations Dashboard.
Uwaga:
You should only deploy Operations Dashboard to your portal if your users are unable to access ArcGIS Online, or if you need to use your company's certificate to sign the app, need control over the version of Operations Dashboard that your users are running, or need to restrict users to connect to only your portal. Otherwise, have your users install Operations Dashboard using the executable from ArcGIS Online through the portal application item that is part of your portal installation.
Installing Operations Dashboard from your portal restricts users to accessing operation views that are on your portal. However, they can still incorporate any data that they can put into their maps on your portal, including data from ArcGIS Online, Portal for ArcGIS, and ArcGIS Server.

Copy the files to your portal
Now that you've generated the files required to install Operations Dashboard on your portal, copy the files to your portal. You need to be an administrator on the machine to do this.

- On the portal machine, browse to <portal install directory>\arcgis\portal\apps (where <portal install directory> is the path to your portal installation), and overwrite the dashboard-win folder. For example, c:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Portal\apps.
- If you're deploying to an LDAP-secured portal using the ArcGIS Web Adaptor (Java Platform), update the security constraints in the web adaptor's web.xml file. For details, see Update security constraints for an LDAP-secure portal.
Create an item on the portal
Now that you've copied the files required to install Operations Dashboard on your portal, create an item on your portal. When your users search for Operations Dashboard on your portal, this is what they will find and use to install the app.
