Dashboard refresh - show today's data

I have a dashboard based on tiles in a report that has a date slicer. When I pin a visual to a dashboard from this report it freezes at the filter context at the time of the pinning. That makes sense...

Hi,

 

I think for this you can pin the entire page of the report to dashboard using "pin live report" option, create links on the individual visuals in the dashboard, that should serve your purpose.

 

Thanks,

Swaroop

    There's no way to do this with visuals? I like how neatly they can be laid out.

    I was thinking that maybe there's a type of filter that can be applied by a slicer that toggles TODAY on and off. So in the report, at the time of pinning I'd have this filter applied such that only TODAY values are dislayed. But when I go into the report from the dashboard, I can toggle this filter off.

    I just don't know how to do this although it seems possible. Any ideas?

    Did you try my suggestion, if that works?
