When the dashboard is saved, this line always overwrites `refresh_frequency` with a fallback of `0` if the key isn't present in the incoming request data [[1]](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset/daos/dashboard.py#L260): ```python md["refresh_frequency"] = data.get("refresh_frequency", 0) ``` Between 6.0.0 and 6.1.0, the PropertiesModal was [refactored into modular sections](https://github.com/apache/superset/pull/34711) and a [comprehensive auto-refresh feature](https://github.com/apache/superset/pull/37459) was introduced. These changes likely altered how metadata flows through the save pipeline, exposing this pre-existing issue where `refresh_frequency` set via the Advanced JSON editor gets silently reset. **Suggested fix** — modify the logic to only update `refresh_frequency` when it's explicitly provided, preserving the existing value otherwise: ```python # Instead of: md["refresh_frequency"] = data.get("refresh_frequency", 0) # Use: if "refresh_frequency" in data: md["refresh_frequency"] = data["refresh_frequency"] ``` The same destructive default pattern applies to other metadata fields in that method (`expanded_slices`, `color_scheme`, `label_colors`, etc.), so it may be worth applying this fix broadly [[2]](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset/daos/dashboard.py). <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To reply, just mention [@dosu](https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot?utm_source=github&utm_medium=bot-comment&utm_campaign=github-comment-footer-20260415&utm_content=reply-with-mention&utm_term=apache%2Fsuperset).* --- Share context across your team and agents.
