OBIEE Autorefresh no prompts

Ok this trick only works if you don't have any prompts on the dashboard page. They can live on other pages if you want to keep them.

Add a text element to your dashboard

Enter :

<META HTTP-EQUIV = "REFRESH" CONTENT = "900">

where 900 is the refresh time in seconds. Don't forget to check the Contains HTML Markup box.

Till Next Time.

Edit: Stijn pointed me to adding:

<META HTTP-EQUIV="CACHE-CONTROL" CONTENT="NO-CACHE" >

To avoid caching of the browser.
