Removing Unwanted "Shared" Dashboards

For some reason, I'm not seeing where I can remove Dashboards/Folders that have been shared with me. My predecessor shared several things that I no longer need, and it's amounting to a lot of clutter. 

Any advice to hide/remove/delete is appreciated! 

Thanks,

  • I had reached out for a similar problem and unfortunately there wasn't a great way to do things in bulk or streamline the process.

    If you are an Admin in Analytics, you can "take over" someone's dashboards, which is what I did to do some cleanup without having to log in as a former user. If you click on the shared dashboard and then on the three dots on the right you can "Switch to Owner's View." Once you are viewing it as the owner, you can republish the dashboard and either un-share it from yourself or change to become the owner if it's a board you want to keep maintaining.

    Unfortunately you can't take their folder structure, but once you take ownership you can then move the dashboards into your own folder structure. This method is particularly helpful if you want to take over some dashboards that have been shared with other users that you'll want to build upon. I also moved some of those previous dashboards into an "archive" folder in case I need to reference them later.

  • I am the main Analytics user for our organization, and am one of the Admin users, but I don't see the option to 'switch to Owner's View'- I can only 'Duplicate'. 'Download' or 'Restore'.

    Is this a RAMP  vs self-hosted dynamic? I would like to clear up some of the dashboards that have been shared with me.

  • It is under the Republish Icon:

    Here:

    We are RAMP...I can't speak to if it is different vs. Self-Hosted.

    *you must be the Owner to do this. If it is Owned by someone else, they need to x-fer it to you first.

  • We are self-hosted, so maybe there are some differences. Here are the options that I can see:
