Last Refresh Data updated

Hi,

 

I am trying to display the last time the report was refreshed when I publish to the app.  How do I set up my app to get the Data Updated section?

That value is pretty meaningless.  It will only tell you when the dataset was last processed. It tells you nothing about the freshness of the actual data. Ideally you can use a field from the actual source data (for example "last transaction date" ) as a true freshness indicator.
