Thanks. What is the use case exactly for this function? Would that be possible to update the documentation to show usage?

I had a look at this PR, as I also wanted a single M-x command. Here's how I used it:

(use-package mu4e-dashboard
  :straight (mu4e-dashboard :type git
 			   :host github
 			   :repo "rougier/mu4e-dashboard")
  :config
  (defcustom jjh/mu4e-dashboard-org-file nil
    "Specify the dashboard.org file path."
    :type 'string
    :safe #'stringp)
  (defun jjh/mu4e-dashboard-open-org ()
    "Open the mu4e-dashboard.org file."
    (interactive)
    (let ((file (or jjh/mu4e-dashboard-org-file load-file-name (buffer-file-name))))
      (with-current-buffer
 	 (find-file file)
        (mu4e-dashboard-mode +1)))))

(setq jjh/mu4e-dashboard-org-file "~/org/mu4e-dashboard.org")

I removed some extra code inside the mu4e-dashboard-open-org function as it seemed unnecessary to load the file.

Sorry for late answer. Can't we have a default filename for the mu4e-dashboard-org-file (e.g. mu4e-dashboard.org) and try to load it with mu4e-dashboard-open-org (I would rename it mu4e-dashboard-open) instead of the hardcoded dashboard.org?
