    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Each dataset, you can set the frequency.

    So 1 dataset, you set to daily.

    The other datasets, you cant set to monthly.

    Depends on your needs.

     

    This is also what I do on my datasets to avoid poor performance.

    Hope this helps you.

One dataset can only set one refresh frequency. So, you can create each datasource as one dataset, and set refresh frequency individually like what mussaenda said. Then create a dashboard based on these datasets.
