+title: "Verified charts and dashboards"
+sidebarTitle: Verified content
+description: Mark charts and dashboards as verified so your team can instantly identify trusted, approved content. Verified content gets a green checkmark badge that shows who verified it and when, and verification is automatically removed if the content is edited.

+
+Verified charts and dashboards let organization and project admins sign off on specific content so the rest of your team knows at a glance which charts and dashboards are trusted and approved.
+
+Each verified item gets a green checkmark badge that shows who verified it and when. Verification always reflects the current state of the content. If a chart or dashboard is edited after being verified, the badge is automatically removed and an admin will need to re-verify the updated version.

+
+## Who can verify content
+
+Only organization admins and project admins can verify or unverify charts and dashboards. All other users can see which content is verified, but cannot change verification status themselves.
+
+## Verifying a chart or dashboard
+
+Admins can verify content directly from the chart or dashboard, or from the verification panel in project settings.
+
+Admins also have a dedicated verification panel under **Project settings** that lists all verified content and provides a central place to manage verification across the project.

+
+## Where users see verified content
+
+Once a chart or dashboard is verified, the green checkmark badge appears wherever that content is surfaced, including:
+
+- The homepage, so users can quickly spot approved content to start from
+- Chart and dashboard listings
+- Inside the chart or dashboard itself, along with the verifier's name and verification timestamp
+
+This makes it easy for teams to distinguish between exploratory or work-in-progress content and content that's been reviewed and approved.

+
+## Verification is automatically removed when content changes
+
+Verification is tied to the exact state of the content at the time it was verified. If anyone edits a verified chart or dashboard, the verification badge is automatically removed. An admin will need to review the updated version and re-verify it.
+
+This guarantees that a verified badge always reflects content that an admin has explicitly approved in its current form.
+
+## Verification in charts and dashboards as code
+
+Verification status is included in [charts and dashboards as code](/guides/developer/dashboards-as-code). When you run `lightdash download`, verified content includes verification metadata right in the YAML, so you can see which downloaded files represent approved content.
+
+This is especially useful when you're using an AI agent, the [Lightdash CLI](/references/lightdash-cli), or [agent skills](/guides/developer/agent-skills) to build on top of trusted content. You can point your agent at your verified charts and dashboards as a source of truth for approved patterns, metrics, and layouts.
+
+<Tip>
+If you're building content with AI agents, starting from verified charts and dashboards is a great way to make sure new content is grounded in patterns your team has already reviewed and approved.
