1. Is there a process or method to automate publishing to non-Grafana users (e.g., the share to [raintank.io](http://raintank.io))?

2. Is there a process to update the data set? I can update my data set if I go to my designer and re-select the time range twice (e.g., go from last 12 hours to some other time range, then back to last 12 hours). Especially in light of #1, would like the shared ‘screenshot’ to include regularly updated data as well.

Thanks,
