Adding text with Markdown tiles

Text tiles put written context on a dashboard: a heading above a group of charts, a note about how a metric is calculated, or a link to related content. You write the content in Markdown, so a tile can include formatting, images, and links. A tile can also show live values from the dashboard’s filters and queries.
