Is there a way to put up a universal "banner" when all users log in.
Here is our business case:
We would like the ability to put up a universal message to all users that log into OAC so they know that reports, visualizations, dashboards are all current as of a specific date/time.
We have some data that can be updated as frequently as 2-3 times a day. We would like some facility to communicate that so when a user logs in they immediately know if their data has been updated.
It would be a administrator only function to update this "text" message on the home OAC dialog.
anyone know of a facility to do this with OAC?
Edited: I know that the visualizations are run "live" but the users will want to know when the underlying data was updated last...

@Dawn Watson , I moved your question to the OAC forum where it will have a better chance of being answered!

@Dawn Watson , You can create a dashboard page and set that page as the starting page for all users.
Please see this document How To Configure PORTALPATH In Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC) To Set The Default Dashboard Or Landing Page (Doc ID 2641867.1)

@Dawn Watson , OAC doesn't have anything like a "universal banner".
As mentioned above you can build a dashboard/workbook where you display that info and that's where all your users are directed after a login. It will add an extra "click" to go back to homepage for users to start doing what they connected for.
Alternatively you can add something in every workbook/dashboard where you need that info to be visible. It can even be automatically populated by getting the text from a dataset or a variable, so you manage it in a single place (or a query find the last load date/time and set the value).
Keeping it short: there isn't a feature as what you ask, you have to build it yourself as a standalone object (dashboard) or adding such a banner into every single dashboard where you need the info to be visible.
