Artist Dashboards combine metadata and consumption data for musical groups, solo artists and collaborations. They collect key biographical data, link musicians to associated acts and projects and help surface performance insights from across an artist's career.
Some artists don’t have Dashboards, even if we’re tracking activity for linked ISRCs and ICPNs. CONNECT requires certain types of artist metadata to create Dashboards. Usually, artist information comes to us from our data partners. Sometimes, we don’t receive enough metadata to automatically generate a complete Dashboard. (Read more here: Artist data discrepancies).
If you notice a missing Artist Dashboard, you may submit individual artists to our database using the Artist Registration Form. Include all required ID codes and metadata attributes.

In addition to the standard activity panes, Artist Dashboards compile performance across an artist’s catalog. Choose ALBUMS, VIDEOS, SINGLES & EP’S or SONGS to compare releases in each category. Click any title to visit its Song or Release Group Dashboard.
Expand or collapse the Discography grid using the gray column at left.
Click [three dots] at top right to export a Discography grid in CSV or Excel format. An Excel export will show each tab (ALBUMS, VIDEOS, SINGLES & EP’S, SONGS) as its own sheet. A CSV export will download as a .zip continuing 4 separate files, one for each tab.
CONNECT automatically generates filenames for Discography exports.
