Benchling Sql Dashboard API

A SqlDashboard is a configurable analytics page that displays one or more SQL-driven visualizations within Benchling Insights. Dashboards belong to a Project and contain ordered blocks (see SqlDashboardBlock), each with its own SQL query and chart or table visualization. Dashboards support parameterConfigs (see SqlParameterConfig) that allow users to filter data dynamically through dropdowns, date pickers, or entity selectors. SQL Dashboards query Benchling's data warehouse.
