You can create charts that monitor information by enabling the Asynchronous Update attribute on the Chart attributes page. Enabling this attribute updates the chart to reflect changes in the underlying data within a specified time interval.

To enable asynchronous updates:

1. Create a chart. See Creating a New Chart.

2. Navigate to the Page Definition:

   1. Navigate to the Database Home Page.

   2. Click the Application Builder icon.

   3. Select an application.

   4. Select a page.

      The Page Definition appears.

3. Under Regions, click Chart next to the region name.

   The Chart Attributes page appears.

4. Scroll down to Refresh.

5. From Asynchronous Update, select Yes.

6. In Update Interval (Seconds), enter the interval in seconds between chart updates. For optimal performance, select an interval that is greater than 2 seconds.

When Asynchronous Update is enabled, a timestamp displays on the chart indicating that last update.

To disable the Asynchronous Update timestamp:

1. Navigate to the Chart Attributes page.

2. Locate the CSS section.

3. From Use Custom CSS, select Yes.

4. In Custom CSS, Inline edit #timestamp as follows:

   #timestamp{display:none;}
