Dashboard Auto-Refresh Switch

[brajaram]

I know how to auto-refresh a dashboard, but is there a way to make a switch within a dashboard to toggle this on an off? I want this dashboard to periodically refresh, but if a user wants that functionality to stop, they should have a switch to do so.

@brajaram have you tried the Slideshow app from Splunkbase?

You can use chrome browser multiple tabs to switch auto between them using powershell script.

while(1 -eq 1){
$wshell=New-Object -ComObject wscript.shell;
$wshell.AppActivate('Google Chrome');
Sleep 15;
$wshell.SendKeys('^{PGDN}');
}

you can change sleep time base on your requirement.

You can use chrome browser and multiple tab in that and it can be auto switch between the tabs using powershell script.
while(1 -eq 1){
$wshell=New-Object -ComObject wscript.shell;
$wshell.AppActivate('Google Chrome');
Sleep 15;
$wshell.SendKeys('^{PGDN}');
}

you can change the time 15 sec. to what you want for your dashboard to switch over.,You can the multiple chrome browsers tab and use Powershell script to switch between tabs.
