Problem: Users want to see time trends on several charts to understand how performance has changed overtime
Preset has recommended we achieve this in the embedded dashboards by supporting both a time stamp filter and time grain selection. However, this requires the embedded user to select two separate options when it's hard to understand the difference between the two. It is very difficult to manage from the user's perspective since they need to select two options to work as intended; having many options makes them overwhelmed, and some combo selections might not even display data that makes sense for comparison (like minute or second in time grain).
Potential solution: Provide ability to configure the time grain and time filter options that appear for embedded users, so the dashboard creator has control to only configure options that make sense for the data and business questions and wouldn't result in confusing visualizations. This simplifies the user experience and ensures they will select something that makes sense.
This is a highly requested feature from our embedded users; however, we would like to have the ability to hide options or at least add instructions to guide them through this difficulty in the user experience.
