    Select a 'Dashboard' to open it in the Blink Portal. In the top-right corner, you can configure the auto-refresh interval to control how often the dashboard updates and reflects the most recent data.

    <Note>By default, the dashboard refreshes **every 5 minutes**.</Note>

    Available refresh intervals:

    * Off (manual refresh only- <Icon icon="refresh" />)
    * 5 seconds
    * 30 seconds
    * 1 minute
    * 5 minutes (default)

    * 30 minutes
    * 1 hour

    Adjust the refresh setting based on how frequently you want the data to update.

    </Frame>

    You can also select a **timeframe**, which acts as a **global filter** across the dashboard. This allows you to view only the data created within a specific time window—for example, all cases created in the last 7 days.

    <Note>**Note:** This filter applies only to widgets whose data source includes the `created_at` field. </Note>

    The available timeframes are:

    * **Today**
    * **Last 24 hours** *(default)*
    * **Last 7 days**
    * **Last 30 days**

    ## Dashboard Widget's Expanded View

    In the dashboards view mode, you can click on a widget to open an expanded view that displays the underlying raw data from the widget’s data source.

    Within this expanded view, you can also interact directly with elements of the visualization to further refine the data being displayed. For example, selecting a specific slice in a pie chart or an individual bar in a bar chart will filter the results to show only the raw records associated with that selected element.

    This allows you to quickly drill down into the data behind specific parts of the visualization directly from the dashboard.

    <Warning>**Note:** When a widget is grouped by a user field (e.g., Case Manager or custom user fields), the expanded view shows the full underlying dataset</Warning>
