HI There when we ask for an update and there is a response you see the response within the comment but you cant see what was asked for the update. Is there a way to do this?

Hi Abbie,
Unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment, but it's a great idea!

Would that help?
Have a fantastic weekend!

There are two places where you can see the Update Requests (depending on if they are active or not)
See attached screenshot!
Hope that helps!

Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
