Specify cache details

This tab is only available on a company-level dashboard. You must enable the cache before data can be cached. Enabling the cache allows you to schedule the refresh of dashboard data at a preset frequency. With every successful run, the XML data file associated with the dashboard is refreshed.

Note: The Enable Cache option controls the Refresh Cache ability on the log. If Cache is not Enabled, Refresh Cache will not work.

The XML data is created only during a scheduled run or when the refresh cache option is selected. If Enable Cache is disabled, the XML is deleted. Until the scheduler refreshes the cache, or a manual refresh of the cache is not done, XML is not created. If Cache is not enabled in the custom dashboard properties, the dashboard query will result in real-time XML data.
