You can specify how often Metabase sends a Slack message (hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly), and whether to send a message if the dashboard fails to return results.
#METABASE DASHBOARD UPDATE#
If you rename the subscribed channel in Slack, you’ll need to update the subscription to point to the new Slack channel name. Slack subscription optionsįor Slack subscriptions, you can set up a subscription for a channel (like #general), or for a single person via their Slack username. To learn more, check out dashboard filters. If you’ve added filters to your dashboard and set default values for those filters, Metabase will apply those default values to your subscriptions, filtering the results of all questions that are connected to those filters when the subscriptions are sent.

You can choose between CSV and XLSX file formats. Tell Metabase if it should also attach results to the email (which will include up to 2000 rows of data). If there are no results, we can tell Metabase to skip sending the email.

You can set up as many subscriptions to a dashboard as you like, and if you make any changes to the dashboard, Metabase will update the subscriptions the next time they’re delivered. If your Metabase has email or Slack set up, all you need to do is create a dashboard, add subscribers to it, and tell Metabase how often you’d like the send out an update. Dashboard subscriptions allow you to send the results of questions on a dashboard to people via email or Slack - even to people who lack an account in your Metabase.
