We also considered few other options, such as changing resource path to a value which contains title. But it also leads to unnecessary complications of the design. URL is unique for a dashboard and it becomes the dashboard "id". We are validating existing dashboards for 'id' at creation. Hence, an user cannot create multiple dashboards with same url. Therefore we decided to allow users to change the dashboard title to an existing one and in-order to distinguish such dashboards , show dashboard 'url' in dashboard listing page (above the description) next to title. > Also there is another similar scenario with Pages inside dashboards, which > user can create multiple pages with same title.
