Refresh report data
Report widgets on the dashboards are updated independently of each other. Due to data latency, it may take 24–72 hours before the newest data appear in the widgets.
To check when a report widget was last updated, select the three dots menu (⋮) in the upper-right corner of the widget.
To update the report widget, you can:
- Use the Refresh option to fetch the latest billing data and update the current widget.
- Use the Refresh all widgets option in the three dots menu (⋮) on the dashboard to update all widgets. See Manage dashboards.
The information shown in the Refresh section is when the DoiT Platform has processed the billing data from the cloud service providers. The freshness of the data itself is decided by the relevant cloud service provider.
See also AWS cost data latency in DoiT console and Google Cloud's frequency of data loads.
Open full report
To open the report that generates the visualization of the widget, select the three dots menu (⋮) in the upper-right corner of the widget, and then select Open full report.
You can also select the report's name to open it directly.
