Do you want to play a crucial role in shaping Jet Global products?
I got a request to allow the time of the last cube update to be shown in a dashboard in Jet Mobile in the web client/iPad app. This would be something like "Last refreshed 3/17/2016 2:15pm" to let people know how current the information is on the dashboard. In addition, if their execution package wasn't updating for some reason then people would notice quickly and be able to get it resolved.

This feature was available in previous versions, why this is disabled in the new version?
There isn't an easy or intuitive way now to do this. In a Jet Essentials report you could always do something like =NP("Eval","=NOW()") that would return when the report was run, but this won't tell you when the cube was last updated. For example if the cube only updates at 7am and people run the report throughout the day it would be good for them to know that the info is only current as of 7am. In Jet Mobile there isn't any way to accomplish this that I'm aware of. Any other ways to accomplish this would be quite a workaround that we wouldn't expect any end users to be able to accomplish. What did you have in mind?
Isn't it really simple to just put this in a value now? Or am I missing something?
