- If you create the TODAY number as a calculated column it will only get updated when the data model refreshes - if you're on a scheduled refresh then this number will show the most recent refresh date.

For #2- Nope, not yet

The latest answer is from February, so I think it is worth a shot to ask "are we there yet?"
or in other words, can we add a notification for a change on "last update"?
Also, I saw the "bell" icon for setting these on number title on the mobile, but I don't see a way to set-up notifications from the service. Is this possible? is it on the plans?
