Dashboard auto-restore

Hello,

I built a dashboard and shared it with a Viewer account, which is then used to display it on a TV (in a Chromium browser running 24/7 on a Raspberry Pi). Whenever the Elastic Cube is rebuilt, the original dashboard is refreshed (new data is displayed and the date in top left corner is updated), but the shared dashboard is not. I have to log into the Viewer account and either refresh the browser or click "restore dashboard", confirm, and only then the new data is there. I would like to automate this process. I tried setting up an auto-refresh using JavaScript API, as described here:

https://support.sisense.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/221227028-Dashboard-Auto-Refresh

but it only reloads the widgets. How can I automate the restoring process?

I would appreciate any help :)

  Has this ever been solved? I think we're having the same issue. How can I determine if the refresh script runs? As a "viewer" I looked at the Page Source and it does not seem the refresh scripts is there.

  
  Thanks,

  Michael

  Hi Michael,

  After checking with our support team, looks like you can use our REST API to automate the dashboard restore operation. 

  The relevant endpoint is: POST /dashboards/{id}/restore. You can find more information on this in our developers documentation

  Let me know if this helps.

  Thanks,

  Oxana
