Is there a way I can create a role for a user that will not time-out due to inactivity?

I'm looking to set up a dashboard that will be projected on a screen indefinitely. Is there a way I can set up a user that will not time-out due to inactivity in order to have this dashboard unattended?

Not that I know of but you can create a role that allows users to send jobs to the background and emails the user when the job completes. This obviates the need to stay logged in.

You could create reports for each panel in the dashboard, enabling embedding for each of the reports, then nab all the iframe code from the UI and stitch it all together in an unauthenticated dashboard.
