Note
Note Beginning in Summer ’26, Chatter is turned off by default in all new orgs. For any features in these orgs that require access to Chatter functionality or the Chatter APIs, turn on Chatter by going to Setup | Chatter Settings and selecting Enable. For details, see Chatter Is Turned Off by Default in New Orgs Beginning in Summer ’26.
Important
Important This option lets users override dashboard visibility settings, making snapshots visible to all Chatter users. Though this makes it easy to share time-specific data without having to add people to dashboard folders, be aware that users can inadvertently post sensitive or confidential information.
  1. Make sure that Chatter feed tracking for dashboards is enabled.
  2. From Setup, enter Reports in the Quick Find box, and select Reports and Dashboards Settings.
  3. Select or deselect Enable Dashboard Component Snapshots.
