A practical approach would be to use the existing Power BI template (.pbit) as the starting point rather than trying to recreate the design from scratch.
Since you already have a standard Power BI template containing the page header, colours, fonts, images and other common branding,
I would suggest the following approach:
Step 1: Create/export the standard Power BI template as a .pbit file.
Step 2: Import the .pbit template when creating the Databricks dashboard template.
Step 3: Validate the imported components from power bi like below.
Page headers
Colours and fonts
Images and logos
Page layout
Visual formatting
Other standard branding elements
Some Power BI-specific components may need adjustment or recreation depending on their compatibility with Databricks dashboards, so this validation step is important.
Step 4: Adjust the Databricks dashboard template where required.
Step 5: Get business approval.
Step 6: Start building the actual dashboards.
Once the template is approved, the BI team can use the same standard design as the starting point for the actual dashboards. Only the dashboard-specific data, KPIs, charts and filters would then need to be added.
This approach should help us maintain a consistent look and feel across all Databricks dashboards while reducing the effort of recreating the same branding and layout repeatedly.
For Workspace organisation
Databricks Workspace
* Operations Dashboards
* Finance Dashboards
* Sales Dashboards
Within each area, the relevant dashboards can be grouped together and access can be controlled based on the business users.
For example:
* Operations users → access to Operations dashboards
* Finance users → access to Finance dashboards
* Sales users → access to Sales dashboards
* BI Team → access across all areas
The important part is to manage access using the appropriate Databricks groups and permissions, rather than giving all users access to everything.
