Helper VError when using the Duplicate Dashboard function
I'm a bit late with a status report, but there is good news. The dashboard copy function is working reliably in 2020.
One pragmatic note: my workaround was to simply pin each tile from the source dashboard to the "backup" dashboard, one at a time. Realistically, there are rarely more than a dozen tiles on a dashboard.
I do find it annoying there is no native backup capability, nor a versioning function. As a developer, a great deal of my time involves making mistakes, I just don't know when or where until they happen <g>
Helper VThe problem is still there as of today 2/13/2019.
The only difference is that you get a confirmation message telling you the copy succeeded.
It does, in the sense you get a new "copy" of the dashboard.
But it is EMPTY.
