Web pages on the screen can reload on a timer

A web page on the screen can now reload itself, so a dashboard or a status page that doesn't update on its own stays current while it's showing.

To turn it on, edit the web page on the Schedule page, open "Advanced" and fill in "Auto-refresh interval (seconds)". The field is only there for web pages. Leave it empty or enter 0 to switch it off, which is the default. The longest interval is 86400 seconds, which is 24 hours.

For developers

On API v2, assets have a refresh_interval_s field, an integer from 0 to 86400, where 0 means off. You can set it when you create or update a web page, and it comes back when you read one.
