+DCAE Dashboard User Guide
+=========================
+
+
+Overview
+--------
+
+DCAE Dashboard is a web application that provides a unified interface for DCAE
+users and Ops users in ONAP to manage DCAE microservices.
+
+
+Starting with the Dashboard
+---------------------------
+
+Type in the application login URL in a web browser. The Login page
+should appear.
+
+|dashboard_1.png|
+
+If you are a first time user, then click on the **Sign up** button. Fill in
+the Sign up FORM and submit it to register for an account. Upon a
+successful login by providing valid login credentials, the user's
+dashboard (Home) screen is displayed. The header navigation bar contains
+menu links and a user profile section in the top right corner. The
+collapsible left sidebar contains all the application menus; each item
+(except "Home") can be expanded into sub-items by clicking on the item. 
+
+User Dashboard contents appear in the panel to the right of the left
+navigation menu. By default(initial view), the screen displays tiles
+contains the count of blueprints and count of deployments owned by the
+signed-in user. The count of plugins uploaded to the Cloudify Orchestrator
+is also shown in the Plugins tile.  Each tile is clickable and will
+navigate control to the individual screens that display detailed
+information about the items. There is a switch at the top to toggle
+between user level or user role group access for the dashboard
+contents.  By switching access type to **Group**, the aggregate count of
+inventory items at the user group (role) level are shown on the dashboard.
+
+|dashboard_2.png|
+
+|dashboard_3.png|
+
+Auto Refresh switch lets user automatically reload the dashboard at
+regular intervals.
+
+An autocomplete list of blueprints lets a user find a specific blueprint
+and trigger a deployments list query. Upon selecting a blueprint item, a
+query is triggered to find associated deployments for the selected
+blueprint. Similarly upon selecting a specific deployment entity, any
+matching execution workflows are queried and displayed in the executions
+data grid. By default the user dashboard shows currently active
+executions that are happening in Cloudify. 
+

+
+Working with blueprints and deployments
+---------------------------------------
+
+Searching/Filtering Blueprints
+------------------------------
+
+
+1. Click on the "Inventory" menu item, which will expand to show
+   sub-items. Select the "Blueprints" sub-item.
+
+A "Blueprints" screen appears, which displays the blueprints retrieved from
+Inventory. By default, a blueprint owner filter is applied to display
+items where the owner is the signed in user. By deselecting the "My
+Blueprints" checkbox, all blueprints belonging to the role group will be
+displayed.
+
+|dashboard_7.png|
+
+|dashboard_8.png|
+
+2. You can search for blueprints based on their name. Type the name of
+the blueprint you wish to work with in the search box at the top right
+hand of the screen and press 'enter' or click the magnifying glass icon
+to look for it.
+
+|dashboard_9.png|
+
+3. You can use search filters by clicking on the down arrow at the right
+end of the search box. Filter by blueprint name and/or owner is available. Once
+finished, click the magnifying glass at the bottom of the advanced
+filters box or press "enter".
+
+|dashboard_10.png|
+
+|dashboard_11.png|
+
+|dashboard_12.png|
+
+4. Lookup deployments mapped to a blueprint
+
+|dashboard_13.png|
+
+Creating Blueprints
+-------------------
+
+1. A user can create a new blueprint either from scratch or by uploading
+   an existing file. To do this, select the "Blueprints" sub-menu
+
+Once the existing set of blueprints appear on the screen, click on the
+"Upload" Button 
+
+|dashboard_14.png|
+
+2. In the "Upload Blueprint" pop-up, fill out all the fields. Provide
+   the name and version number for the blueprint -- hints on nomenclature are
+   available by clicking on the input field help icon (question mark
+   symbol).  A blueprint file can be either "dragged and dropped" from
+   the user's own directory or it can be created from scratch. When
+   finished, press "Save". *Note:*\ **Import Data**\ *function is not
+   supported and will be removed later.*
+
+|dashboard_15.png|
+
+3. Allow the Blueprints screen to reload and then check that the
+   blueprint you created is in the table.
+
+
+Viewing/Exporting Blueprints
+----------------------------
+
+1. Navigate to the Blueprints screen via the sidebar menu On the
+   Blueprints screen, click on the Actions button icon (More actions)
+   for the blueprint you wish to work with. A number of choices are
+   indicated in a pop-up: View, Export, Update, Deploy and Delete.
+
+|dashboard_16.png|
+
+2. Choose "View" to display the contents of the blueprint
+
+|dashboard_17.png|
+
+Deploying Blueprints
+--------------------
+
+3. Navigate to the Blueprints screen via the sidebar menu. On the
+   Blueprints screen, click on the Actions button icon (More actions)
+   for the blueprint you wish to work with and select "Deploy"
+
+|dashboard_18.png|
+
+4. On the "Deploy Blueprint" pop-up, fill in all the fields. There are
+   two ways to  supply the input parameters for the blueprint: one is to
+   drag and drop a parameters file; the other is to manually fill in the
+   name-value pairs. When finished, press the "Deploy" button at the
+   bottom.
+
+|dashboard_19.png|
+
+5. Navigate to the Deployments screen via the sidebar menu and check
+   that the blueprint deployed is listed on the screen
+
+|dashboard_20.png|
+
+Searching/Filtering Deployments
+-------------------------------
+
+1. Navigate to the Deployments screen via the sidebar menu.
+
+2. By default, the deployment owner filter and application cache filters are
