Question

Dashboard always running

Is there a way we can have the dashboard always running, Say on a large screen for the team to always monitor? Maybe not with an admin login on the screen but just so it doesn't sign out of the session.

    Running v5.6, there is a way:

    - create a new admin profile, say readonly for everything

    - at the bottom, tick "Override Idle Timeout"

    - set to "Never Timeout"

    - create a new admin, using this profile

     

    and then go on to create a custom dashboard...

    And yes, I would never ever grant more than readonly to this admin as he/she will never idle logout.

    Thanks mate, legend.

    However, I can not see an option for Override Idle Timeout on either the Admin Profile or the Administrators user I set up.
