How to the setup or configure my extract filters in tableau to always load the current data when admin refreshes the extract
If you want the user to be shown the latest data upon every refresh on the dashboard, you will need to use MAX in your worksheets. For example: When the user opens the dashboard, the user is prompted automatically with week 05, next week when you refresh the data extract on server, the user is prompted with week 06. In that scenario, you dont need to change filter or parameter, it is automatic.
There are drawbacks to the use of Max everytime. In some of your worksheets you might not have Week 05 data because of other filters. It returns you Max week to be 03 because you have data for that week. Should be careful and test more when using LODs

I need to create a form where the user can submit multiple dates of their choice. Smartsheet forms doesn't support multi-date picker and the only option is to have those dates added to the dropdown.
Can someone please link me to the smartsheet documentation or let me know whether it's possible at all to feed values into a dropdown list using the API?
I need the API to send all dates future except today's date.
I have tried using ddupdate along with automations on smartsheets. I loaded all dates in the a separate sheet and used the smartsheet automation to move rows and stuff, but it ends up taking away the entire sheet instead of just one.
Is there a way to change the first day of the week in the JetBrains YouTrack Cloud software? Right now week starts from Sunday, which affects all calendars in all widgets in YT. I want to change the first day of the week to Monday.
You can change it for a single user. Would like to change it as default for all newly created users. But don't know about that yet.
Changing it for a user go to your profile or as admin Access Management -> Users and click a user name.
In the General tab near the bottom you can set the First Day of Week for this user.
Is it possible to hide the joined date of GitHub?
It seems to not appear on an old account, but it displays on a new account.
If you have not filled at least one entry in your profile the joined date ist shown. Otherwise the order of appearance on the edit profile page determines the information shown. So most people fill Company or Location entries to get rid of the joined date.
On profile pages, the age of the account is shown for the first 30 days e.g. "Joined 2 days ago". Filling in other profile information such as location or company doesn't have any effect on this.
Once the account is older than that the join date is no longer shown in the sidebar of the profile but will still be visible as the first entry in contribution activity.
This answer is based on experimentation along with this Reddit comment.
I am creating a report in Tableau and wanted to show the latest date in dashboard whenever I refresh the data. My data also contains last one month's data points. And on daily basis, we are refreshing the data.
If you just want to show the latest date in your dashboard you can just have a sheet with max(date_field) and drag that sheet onto your dashboard.
If you want that date to change dynamically with the users choice of periods that you just need to look at "Apply to worksheets" on your dashboard filter.
I'm building a site that stores date/time values in UTC on the database.
When I display these values, I use javascript to convert them to the current's user timezone. This is working correctly so far.
Now I want to send some information to users by email (something like a reminder), and this should have the date time as well.
I don't want to print the UTC time in the email, and since I'm sending the email from the server I don't have access to the user's current timezone.
What's the best approach to solve this? should I store the timezone of the user whenever he logs in and use that to convert the date?
Any comments are appreciated.
Yes, you can detect the user's timezone using Javascript, have the Javascript submit that information to the server, and have the server store it as a preference. If the user sometimes changes timezones you could even keep track of which one they are in most frequently and use that one.
