How to share a dashboard with an absolute time-range on it.

Question:

Is it possible to share a dashboard containing an absolute time frame such as 'today'? We have a specific dashboard which I would like to share that is best viewed with all panels set to Today.

Answer: 

This is not possible in Publicly shared dashboards or dashboards that have been set to Live Mode. Absolute time ranges, such as 'Today", "Yesterday" or a specified time range are only supported within Interactive Dashboards. 

For Interactive Dashboards you can set the default time range to "Today" as follows:

1. Select Edit mode on the dashboard.
2. Select the appropriate setting (example "Today") from the drop-down menu at the dashboard level or under each panel.
3. Select, [Save as defaults] to save the current time range settings as the default for the Dashboard.
