adding a new link to dashboard, how?

Hi, does anyone know how to add a LINK to an ANALYTICS DASHBOARD? I'm getting an error and until now I could not find anyhing in documentation. 

thank you for help.

to be more specific: I need to figure out how to create a .LINK type of entry into a folder so I can add it to the dashboard.

Hi Dan !

ADD / CREATE is just wishful thinking. sad It is only able to EDIT an already EXISTING link.
If it exists you get asked: "Overwrite ?" otherwise "Not Found" as you have seen. angry

You must create first a dummy of type *.link.DFI  that you have to import by DeepSee Folder Manager
or better directly in Studio. You must then assign the correct name already there.
Folder Manager can't rename or move it !!  only Import/Export sad 

Here is a dummy link to start with.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<Document name="dummy.link.DFI">
<link

Feel free to place a PRODLOG on that bug.
I will not do it. I'm not willing to wait so long. crying
I just recently received a closing message on another PRODLOG  I had placed in early 2017. angry
