# Situation Report Dashboard

The Situation Report Dashboard shows you an overview of your organization and activity, and specifically highlights open actions that need to be taken care of by your organization. You can find it by going to **Dashboards > Situation Report**.

{% hint style="info" %}
When you first open this tab, you see information for the last 30 days. But you can specify a different time period using the list on the right.
{% endhint %}

Each area on this screen shows you specifics about your environment. Depending on your specific environment, your screen can look slightly different than our examples here.

### Activity Metrics

This area shows you a quick overview of what Expel is doing and noticing in your environment. To see charts and dig a little deeper into these metrics, click the bottom of the area. It expands to show you more information.

In this area, the information is divided into further categories for you. For example, you see 883 reviewed alerts in the last 30 days, with the alerts separated into categories on a chart.

### Open Action Items

This area is below Activity Metrics and shows you a summary of the remaining information on the page. Click one of the boxes to skip to that area of the page. Otherwise, you can continue scrolling down and you will eventually see all of this information.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.expel.io/workbench-reference/dashboards/situation-report-dashboard.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
