Description

Feature request

Is your feature request related to a problem?

Currently, dashboards show only a created date with the name of the person who created it. No information is provided for Last modified, and nothing is found in Team Activity. This makes troubleshooting challenging.

Describe the solution you'd like

Please add Last Modified info, with the name of the user who made the change, and a timestamp, under the Created by info on the Dashboard ... menu.

Please record Dashboard changes under Team Activity, as is seen with changes to insights, etc.

Research direction

Start from the Dashboard “...” menu and compare its existing Created by information with how insight changes appear in Team Activity. Trace the corresponding dashboard metadata and activity entry points, then verify that edits show the last modifier and timestamp and that dashboard changes appear in Team Activity.
