Hi @Krutika_Agrawal

Check the searches that are used in your dashboard. If you have a classic dashboard a small magnifying glass pups up when you are hovering the mouse pointer over a penel. 

I am expecting that you are searching either the itsi_summary index or the summary metrics index. The KPI name should update for the affected services from the point forward from the change. 

To enable a new KPI name to historical data you might want to rewrite the search to correlate the KPI name to the Service KPI name by KPI id from a REST call. See Service KPI.
