Data Studio Community Connector: How to change Data freshness interval

Question

My custom Google Data Studio Community Connector reads "Data freshness: 12 hours" when configuring the Data Source in Google Data Studio . How do I influence the data freshness interval displayed and / or the messaging displayed when this is selected? The "learn more" link furnished by Google Data Studios doesn't address how to manipulate this value.

Answer 1

On the panel on the right, select the Data tab, then click the pencil next to your Data Source, and a panel should slide up from the bottom. At the top of this panel, you'll see "Data Freshness" which you can set to increments small as 15 minutes.

Answer 2

Community connectors always set "Data freshness" to 12 hours.
