"Send Dashboard" - Automated emails for Dashboards

We need the ability to send out automated emails with a Dashboard attached. Currently this is only available at the report level, but my team and I have often needed to send out an entire dashboard on a regular bases, and it doesn't make sense to send out each individual report from the dashboard (too many emails). There should be a way to send out automated emails with a Dashboard attached.

Hi Matt, Does this also include calendar dashboards ? I could include a calendar to report dashboard, but wanted to know if this will be across all type of dashboards. Thank you.

Workfront, is there an update on this long-standing customer feedback? Really wishing we could do this! An old comment in this thread from @Exp_-_LilitMk (not sure if she's still here, it was from 2017) says that this was planned in an upcoming release. Many of us want this!

If the report uses wildcards like $$USER.ID, how would that work? It would have to send different report content to each person.

@Madalyn_Destafney Absolutely, merging them now. I cannot confirm if this is on the roadmap or not, but do agree that this needs some further investigation!

We do not have immediate plans to address this need. However, we have given this some thought recently in our planning for the new Canvas Dashboards capabilities.

Status changed to: Investigating

I would love to see this added, and I'm surprised it isn't already.  I just finished up an executive dashboard for our management.  They would like it emailed to them every other week for accountability.  I know they're going to see this as a key missing feature.

I don't know how much work they're going to be doing on existing dashboards if they plan to deprecate them in favour of the Canvas.

We can most definitely see this as an urgent use case for us - especially for our senior leadership team! Please put this on the roadmap!
