Yes, using the Custom URL Dashlet.

When you are looking at the page you want, click the Popout icon:
Selection_056.png
This opens the page in a new tab/window.
Copy URL in the address bar your clipboard.
Now close this new tab/window.
Click Dashboards > Add Dashlets > Available Dashlets
Add the Custom URL Dashlet
In the Dashlet URL paste the clipboard contents
Adjust the other settings like "Which Dashboard" and height/width
Click Add it
Now you'll have that page on the dashboard you selected.

This was exactly what I neede Troy. I've been looking around how to put Highcharts on a NagVis map. But with your method and the custom url dashlet, I can work the other way around! And put NagVis maps on my dashboards. Just one small question / feature request. I noticed, once added , it seems no longer possible to change the height and width. from the moment the page is reloaded, the dashlet seems to be back at it's original size. Do you think it would be possible to make it resizable?

EDIT: Did some more tests and this dashlet seems to always go back to a very small size. Do you experience similar issue?

Grtz

I believe the dashlet forces this by default. If you would, please submit a bug report for this guy and link back here, I'll make an internal one as usual then. It would seem that it definitely should respect the size you set it to, if at all possible.

Hopefully this is the solution for what costanza2k1 wanted :)

Thanks! Copied internally. Locking this until we can post a resolve for you. Let me know if you need it unlocked for some reason.

I've updated the component and attached the new 1.0.1 version (just upload it in the web UI) if you'd like to use it before the new version of Nagios XI comes out.
