Adding dynamic dates to dashboards

Christopher Patton

Hello,

I am currently building some dashboards and am wondering if there's any way to have the titles on Widgets automatically put in dates? For example, I have three graphs, one for the current month, one for the previous month, and one for the month before that. I can title them "Current Month", "Previous Month", and.... "Two Months Ago"?, but I don't like that. Ideally it would say "May Data", "April Data", and "March Data". Is there some way to do this that I'm not seeing? I was hoping there might be some kind of #MONTH-1#, #MONTH-2# verbiage I could use to achieve this.

Thank you!

Hi @Christopher Patton

Unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment, but it's an excellent idea!

Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment

As a possible workaround, you could hide the title and automatically get the title from a metric widget instead.

Would that work?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Thank you very much for that suggestion, I was able to utilize metrics widgets to achieve what I was wanting to. I do think it would be very handy to have the feature built in though too! I'll be sure to submit a request as you noted.

Thanks!
