Splunk Search

Getting different results in Splunk dashboard for different users

Loves-to-Learn Lots

I've made a dashboard to show some statistics on it. The information that appears on my dashboard differs from that of my users. A Studio Dashboard is used to design the dashboard. I checked the time zone and me and other user both are in same time zone. 

What could be the issue? Please guide me.

Generally when I come across this it is usually timezones, whitelisted indexes and/or default indexes configured for the user's roles. Since you said it is not time zones I would check the user's role allowed indexes and (if the index is not specified in the search) what are the default searched indexes for their role. If no luck there you can take a deeper look at the user's role search restrictions and see if there is anything there that may be the cause of the discrepancy.
