Auto Refresh Dahsboard Studio

Hi!

I make a dashboard in Splunk Dashboard Studio, but I don't know how I can program the Auto refresh ( every 1 minute) to update the entire dashboard.

 

Please Help!

 

Thanks

Hi jmatelun,

You can auto-refresh certain data sources inside your dashboard. Click on whichever data source you'd like to automatically refresh, select the edit button and expand the "code" section. Then you can insert "refresh" and "refreshType" into the "options" section inside the json of your data source. I've included an example below:

{
    "type": "ds.search",
    "options": {
        "query": "| tstats count where index=*",
        "queryParameters": {
            "earliest": "-60m@m",
            "latest": "@m"
        },
        "refresh": "5s",
        "refreshType": "delay"
    },
    "name": "pulsarRateOut"
}

 Unfortunately I'm unaware of a way to refresh the entire dashboard in one setting. There's some more information about this here: 
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.2.2/DashStudio/dsOpt#refreshType_and_refresh_options_...

Hope this helps!
