How-to
How to publish your dashboards to Hubviz Web
Send cube data from Hubviz Studio to Hubviz Web, republish when the data changes and learn what to do when your plan storage runs out.
By the end of this guide the data from your project’s cubes is in Hubviz Web, and your team sees up-to-date numbers in the browser with nothing to install. Publishing is the step that takes data from Hubviz Studio to Hubviz Web.
-
Save
Charts, filters and dashboards stay in your account.
-
Publish
Hubviz Studio reads each cube and sends the data to the cloud.
-
Check
Your team opens the dashboard in Hubviz Web.
What is published and what is not
| What | When it reaches Hubviz Web |
|---|---|
| Charts, filters and dashboards | When you save, with Ctrl + S or Save at the top of the screen. No need to publish. |
| Cube data | Only when you publish with Publish to the Web or when automatic refresh in the cloud runs. |
| The cube rows | Hubviz Web receives the rows with mapped fields, calculated fields and relationships already applied. The source file and the connection to the source stay where they are. |
Without publishing, the dashboard opens in Hubviz Web with the new charts but with the data from the last publish.
Publish
Example: the Sales Results 2026 project, from Aurora, has the Sales cube, which reads the vendas-aurora-2026.csv spreadsheet with 36 rows. The leadership opens the dashboard tomorrow and you want today’s numbers.
-
Open the project in Hubviz Studio. Save everything that has an asterisk (*) in the tab name.
-
If you want to check the numbers first, click Run all cubes. It processes the cubes in Hubviz Studio only and publishes nothing.
-
At the top of the screen, click the Publish to the Web icon (up arrow).
-
Wait. Hubviz Studio reads each cube at the source and sends the rows to the cloud. When it finishes, a green notice appears: Data integration complete.
-
Hubviz Studio asks whether you want to open the dashboard now (Would you like to open the dashboard now?). In the browser, the question is a confirmation box from the browser itself: OK opens Hubviz Web and Cancel closes the box. In the desktop app, the Publication complete window has the buttons Open dashboard now and Close.
To open Hubviz Web later without publishing, use the Open web dashboard icon. With only one dashboard in the project, it opens right away. With more than one, the menu asks Which dashboard should open in Hubviz Web? and you pick.
Check in Hubviz Web. If the dashboard still shows the old numbers right after the notice, reload the page in a moment: the cloud finishes processing after the upload.
Header buttons
| Button | What it does | Disabled when |
|---|---|---|
| Save | Saves the open tab (charts, dashboards, cubes). It does not publish. | No tab is open. |
| Run all cubes | Processes all cubes in Hubviz Studio so you can see the numbers. It does not publish. | No project is open or a send is in progress. |
| Load last sent data | Downloads the data from the project’s last publish. See Work on another computer. | No project is open or a send is in progress. |
| Publish to the Web | Publishes all cubes of the open project. | No project is open or a send is in progress. |
| Open web dashboard | Opens the dashboard in Hubviz Web. | No project is open. |
Republish
Publish again whenever the source data changes. Changing only a chart or a dashboard does not require republishing: saving is enough.
What happens to the old data depends on the cube:
| Cube | What the new publish does |
|---|---|
| Without an Id field | Replaces the cube data with what Hubviz Studio has just read. |
| With an Id field | Updates by identifier: the row with the same Id is replaced and a row with a new Id is added. A row that disappeared from the source stays published. |
The Id field is the field type that identifies each record. See Cube fields.
Each cube is sent separately. If one fails, the others go on and stay published. The failure notice appears at the end, and what worked is not undone.
Who sees what was published
- Anyone who signs in to Hubviz Web sees the Your projects screen with all the projects in the workspace. See Projects and dashboards.
- Inside a project, everyone sees the same published numbers. What changes from person to person are the dashboards and tabs released in sharing. See Share.
- Creators and viewers have limits per plan. See Users and limits.
Automatic refresh after publishing
Publishing by hand is for the first time and for adjustments. For the data to follow the source on its own, turn on automatic refresh on the cube, in the Sync tab. It runs in the Hubviz cloud or on this computer, with a minimum frequency of 1 hour, and sends the data to Hubviz Web at the time you set. See Automatic refresh.
Plan storage
Published data takes up the workspace storage, adding up all projects. Each plan includes a limit.
| Plan | Storage |
|---|---|
| Essential | 5 GB |
| Professional | 30 GB |
| Business | 60 GB |
To see how much you have used, open User Menu and click Plan Usage. The Storage card shows the usage and what is left. Near the limit it shows You are approaching the limit, and at the limit it shows You have reached your plan limit.
When storage runs out
Hubviz checks the space before sending each cube. If the space used has already reached the limit, the send of that cube is refused. On screen, the notice is this:
The notice gives the reason: Your plan’s storage is full (X of Y GB). Free up space or buy extra storage at www.hubviz.com/extras. In place of X comes the space used and, in place of Y, your plan’s limit. The text follows the language of Hubviz Studio. To check the usage, open Plan Usage: the Storage card shows the limit reached. In the installed app, the detail of each cube is also in the Send Data Logs history. If the failure is another one, the notice starts with Some cubes could not be sent. and carries the reason for each cube. What happens in this case:
- The data that was already published stays in Hubviz Web.
- In a project with several cubes, the first ones may be sent and the last ones refused, because the check is made cube by cube.
- To publish again, buy additional storage or change plans. See Plan and billing.
Work on another computer
On another computer, or after clearing the browser data, use Load last sent data at the top of the screen. Hubviz Studio downloads the data from the project’s last publish, without reading the sources again. When it finishes, you see Last published data loaded.. If the project was never published, the notice is No published data found..
When publishing does not work
| Notice | What it means | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Alguns cubos falharam no envio | At least one cube was not sent: storage ran out or Hubviz Studio could not read the source. | Check the Storage card in Plan Usage. If there is space, process the cubes with Run all cubes and see which one fails. |
| Connection profile not found for: Sales. Check Settings. | The cube’s connection is not among the connections saved in Hubviz Studio. The cube name appears in place of Sales. | Open Data Sources and check the cube’s connection. |
| Cannot run integration: no cubes in project. | The project has no cube. | Create a cube. See Connections overview. |
| Cannot run the integration: it is already running. | A publish of this project is already in progress. | Wait for it to finish. |
| There is already an execution in progress in another project. Wait for it to finish. | Another project is being processed. | Wait for it to finish and publish again. |
| No company linked to the project. Check the project settings. | The project lost its link to its publishing space in Hubviz Web. | Close the project, open it again and retry. |
| Project has no linked company for loading published data. | Same problem, when loading the last data. | Close the project, open it again and retry. |
| Failed to load last published data. | The cloud did not return the data from the last publish. | Try again. If it continues, publish again. |
