Database Center lets you create a customized dashboard view that shows only the health issues in your database fleet that you want to see. A dashboard view can be for only you, or it can be shared with colleagues who have access to your Google Cloud project. If you don't want to create a permanent customized dashboard view, you can create a temporary custom URL to share with anyone in your organization.

In the Edit access pane, click Add another role.
In Select a role, select Database center admin.
