+## Adding a project to the dashboard
+
+NOTE: **Note:**
+For GitLab.com, the Operations Dashboard is available for free for public projects.
+If your project is private, the group it belongs to must have a

+
+To add a project to the dashboard:
+
+1. Search for a project using the **Search your projects** field.
+1. Click the **Add projects** button.
+
+Once added, the dashboard will display the number of active alerts,
+last commit, pipeline status, and when it was last deployed.
