Disable "Dashboard Summary" on Platform Analytics Dashboards by default

Erik Nelson

With the latest round of plugin updates, is the automatic addition of the "Dashboard Summary" Skill which by default adds the "Generate Summary" widget to Platform Analytics Dashboards. I know that the skill can be turned off or restricted, but that doesn't remove the prompt from the dashboard (instead just saying it requires a skill). I know each dashboard can be individually updated to turn off the feature.

 

My question though, is...is there a property or a setting to turn off the widget/prompt by default for all dashboards? I don't want to have to force my EUs (or myself as an admin) to update each individual dashboard or be frustrated by me simply disabling/restricting the skill.

 

Thanks!

Erik

There doesn't appear to be a default way to disable setting the property to true, however guidance on updates is provided in https://support.servicenow.com/kb?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB3128044. For bulk updates it's going to par_dashboard_user_metadata and bulk updating from the list view. It does not appear the option is available to select from "Update All" or "Update Selected" at this time.
