Read articleMost assistant integrations are write-only: they can build something and never look at it again. Dashwall agents can now read a board back, seeing the readings, the targets, the trend, and whether a tile has gone quiet, from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex, with no API key to paste.
Read articleA webhook is all it takes to keep a metrics wall up to date: one URL per number and one POST when it changes. Here are the four ways to feed one, from your code, a cron job, an automation tool, or an AI agent, plus the mistakes to avoid.
Read articleDashwall ships an MCP server: agents like Claude can create boards, add tiles, push live metrics and hand you the display link, all from a single prompt, connected over OAuth or with a scoped API key.
Read articleTurn any office TV into a live metrics wall in four steps: pick a screen, choose a handful of KPIs, wire up webhooks so the numbers update themselves, and set the screen to kiosk mode.
