# OpenSearch Dashboards notebooks (experimental)
|
|
|
|
Notebooks have a known issue with [tenants](../../security/access-control/multi-tenancy/). If you open a notebook and can't see its visualizations, you might be under the wrong tenant, or you might not have access to the tenant at all.

|
|
|
|
An OpenSearch Dashboards notebook is an interface that lets you easily combine live visualizations and narrative text in a single notebook interface.
|
|
|
|
Notebooks let you interactively explore data by running different visualizations that you can share with team members to collaborate on a project.
|
|
|
|
A notebook is a document composed of two elements: OpenSearch Dashboards visualizations and paragraphs (Markdown). Choose multiple timelines to compare and contrast visualizations.
|
|
|
|
Common use cases include creating postmortem reports, designing runbooks, building live infrastructure reports, and writing documentation.
