<!-- Answer --> Auto-refresh stops working when you use /?standalone=2 because this mode hides the dashboard header, which is responsible for starting the auto-refresh timer in Superset's frontend. When the header is not rendered, the periodic refresh logic never runs, so charts don't update automatically. This isn't documented as a bug, but is a side effect of how the dashboard UI is structured in Superset 5.0.0 [reference](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset-frontend/src/dashboard/components/DashboardBuilder/DashboardBuilder.tsx#L364-L717). If you need auto-refresh in embedded/standalone mode, the most practical workaround is to use JavaScript in your embedding page to reload the iframe at your desired interval—for example: ```js setInterval(() => { const iframe = document.getElementById('superset-dashboard-iframe'); if (iframe) { iframe.contentWindow.location.reload(); } }, 5 * 60 * 1000); // every 5 minutes ``` There is no built-in config or parameter to enable native auto-refresh in standalone mode when the header is hidden [reference](https://github.com/apache/superset/discussions/34340). <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To reply, just mention [@dosu](https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot).* --- <sup>How did I do?
