1)rename the current to old

2)rename the new to current.

or do I have to do the below.

1)clone the current to old

Hi @auzark ,

the main issue is that the app menu and the drilldown urls point to the name of a dashboard (not to the title as reports), so, if you clone a dashboard you have to modify all pointing urls.

So, my hint is to clone the current dashboard to <dashboard_name>_old (to save the old version) and then modify the current one, so you don't need to modify urls.

Ciao.
