BAQ Modified - Dashboard Not?

I have created a BAQ and deployed a Dashboard that uses that BAQ.

I then modified the BAQ but the Dashboard still seems to use the BAQ before I made the changes. If I open the dashboard from the “Dashboard” menu, then go to Actions > Deploy > Test Dashboard, it still seems to be using the BAQ before I modified it.

I figured that doing the Test Dashboard would pull the new BAQ so that I could verify it before redeploying. Is that not the case?

What type of modifications have you done in BAQ?
If it is adding or removing the columns then you have to manually change the visibility of columns in the dashboard via BAQ and Grid View Properties.

I just added some criteria onto one of the tables in the BAQ.

Just re-deploy the dashboard and it will get updated.

You might have to click on the properties of the baq in the dashboard and unhide the new fields.

I didn’t add any new fields. Just updated the criteria of one of the tables.

I did a redeploy and it didn’t take either. So, I just recreated the dashboard and that took care of the issue.

Classic or Kinetic dashboard?

Classic the dataview automatically updates so no problem. Kinetic I’ve had to edit the DV manually and redeploy.

Sometimes, this is a place where clearing the client cache gets rid of the old dashboard. Did you try running at another’s computer?

If you have multiple appservers, sometimes they don’t propagate well, and a restart of the app pool will take care of this.

We have to clear cache CONSTANTLY when making changes to dashboards. I started adding a version number to the names (rev01.1 for example) to make it easy on myself to know whether or not a given user is running the correct version. (the same thing can happen with customizations, so I use rev numbers on those too). It really helps the trouble-shooting.

Are you still in 10.2? I haven’t seen that in a long time. Now, if I make a change to the dashboard, I just close the dashboard and re-open it and the changes (for things like table criteria) are already applied. But we are on K2023.

I’ve seen this multiple times. The solution is to go into the dashboard and search for the BAQ again and save the dashboard. This will refresh what the dashboard uses. You then need to redeploy the dashboard.
