How to Automatically Refresh Dashboard in OTBI?

Amrish_Amradkar

Hi Gurus,

We have an operational dashboard build which is displayed on the Production Floor.

Is there a way to make it auto-refresh. We have observed that user need to always click Refresh hyperlink to get the realtime data.

@Amrish_Amradkar,

Try the below:

1. Edit the OTBI Dashboard.
2. Add a new section to the dashboard page.
3. Insert a Text object into that section.
4. In the Text object, add the following HTML:
5. Hide the section so it doesn’t interfere with the dashboard layout.

<META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="60">
This refreshes the dashboard every 60 seconds.
You can change 60 to any interval (in seconds) that suits your needs.

or

Hi

One option might be to browser extensions to set up auto-fresh at browser level.

There are options to include html/javascript in analysis text fields in below OTBI documentation

You can try to checking if javascript can be used for your requirement
