Your Unity scene may be too large to upload to the online dashboard.

The Dashboard dropdown option from the Metalitix menubar allows users to view the online Metalitix dashboard within their Unity project. This is particularly useful for scenes that might be gigabytes large and unpractical to upload to the online dashboard.

1. Log into your account by navigating to Metalitix -> Logger in the menu bar and clicking the Login button in the top-right corner. After logging in you will see a message with a greeting Welcome, {name}. You will not need to log in every time each restart Unity. Your login credentials will be stored in the Unity cache. You can also exit or change accounts using the Logout button.

2. Next, underneath Global Settings in the same window (Metalitix -> Logger in the menu bar), input the API Key for your project. You can find the API Key from the Metalitix dashboard.

3. Finally, navigate to your scene model (or the parent of all your scene objects) and add a MetalitixScene component if it does not have one already. This will tell the dashboard to use this model for rendering heatmap and session data.

4. Your dashboard is now configured for viewing in Unity. You can access it by navigating to Metalitix -> Dashboard in the menu bar at any time. The interface is similar to the online dashboard, which you can learn more about on our platform breakdown page. To navigate the perspective, in your 3D viewport (not the dashboard window) manipulate your camera using mouse and WASD.
