We often need to edit the map used in a dashboard to update symbology, configure popups etc., however, when you are editing the dashboard you cannot see the source URL for the map so you don't necessarily know what map to edit to make the required changes.  You end up having to search your content and guess which map is being used to update it.

Please add the URL, or even just the name of the map to the settings for the map in the dashboard.  The General tab might be the best place to put it.  There is a 'Name' field in the General tab, but it is the name of the element, not the name of the map itself.

By default, the name assigned to a dashboard map element is derived from it's title string. During config, it shows up in two places.

Also note, a link to the map(s) used in a dashboard are available in the navigation bar at design time.

Moving the status to 'Already offered', but leaving open so that the community can continue to vote for the original request, which was to have the link available somewhere in the map config. settings.
