Variables do not update on refresh or reload

  • What Grafana version and what operating system are you using?
    version 12.1.1 on MacOS in firefox browser

  • What are you trying to achieve?
    I want to update the value of variables once I refresh or reload the dashboard. For example: I have a variable called “Heute” which is calculating the linux timpestamp of today. I a doing calculation within panels with that variable.

    result is a Linux timestamp:

  • How are you trying to achieve it?
    click the refresh button within Grafana or reload the browser session.

  • What happened?
    the variable does not update - instead I need to go to edit mode - go to variables - run the variable manually and go back to the dashboard.

  • What did you expect to happen?
    in prio versions the variables did update on refresh or reload

  • Can you copy/paste the configuration(s) that you are having problems with?

  • no logs

  • Did you follow any online instructions? If so, what is the URL?
