Dynamic date stamp on dashboards | XM Community
Skip to main content

Hi there,
I've been asked to add a date stamp to recurring reports, for example "Data from xx/xx/xxxx to xx/xx/xxxx" but I see no widget that can do this, nor dynamic text that can be inserted.
Is there any way? If no, how can I request this feature?
Thanks all in advance.

If I'm understanding it correctly, You can apply filter globally using record date variable. Else please check this with Qualtrics support.

Hi ArunDubey,
Thanks for taking the time to reply.
With your solution, say for example you are scheduling a weekly dashboard, and filter the date by 'this week, shifted back by 1 week', that wouldn't add the date itself to the dashboard. Instead, that would look like this:.

Hi CristianPinzetta , please refer below screenshots. PS. I'm using date variable Record date for date range filter. Make sure your custom variable type should be date variable in the backend of the database.

Hi,
These dashboards will be viewed periodically, therefore with your example I'd need to change the date manually every week.
Thanks though.

Yes, if you want to keep it dynamically then date range will not appear and it will show like last 30 days, 60 days etc.

Hi Cmurph,
Thanks for the link, I've just added the idea: https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/23768/dynamic-automatic-date-stamp-in-dashboards#latest

Hi CMurph and CristianPinzetta
I think you can do this already by using a widget and displaying recorded date, perhaps group it to week and then just adding a filter to show the last 7 days or something like that and then just mess around with the various settings to make it not show anything else . I use this line widget for my dashboards and it works quite well. Sometimes it displays 2 weeks but not very often.
Hope that helps

I have also raised a similar product idea about timestamps but it's more about when the cache for the data was last refreshed which sometimes goes wrong I've discovered. WOuld be grateful for some upvoting https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/23068/cx-dashboard-widgets-timestamp-when-background-data-last-updated#latest
Thanks
