Query name is not updating on Explore custom dashboard

+1 just finished with ZD support with the same issue. If you update the master query, it should update in all of the dashboards it is tied to. Now you have to communicate to various team members/managers to update their dashboards and explain why they have to, etc - point is, time is spent on something we should not have to spend time on because logically, it should just update all of the dashboards.

+1. We ran into this issue earlier and had to create a Zendesk ticket. 

I agree with the above sentiments, editing a query name should edit the name in all dashboards (otherwise, you run into a problem where if you are trying to look up a query in a dashboard, you can't find it because it has a different name; plus as mentioned above - manually having to go into every dashboard it's used in and rename it just to sync the name properly).

On our opinion the change in query name should populate back to dashboards where it used.  

This is a pain point for me as well. I like Rose's idea for "Update on All Dashboards"

Quote from Rose's comment:
I am having to remove then re-add the query from every dashboard I have when I change the name.

I am following this method, but that is time-consuming. I hope the query title sync with the dashboard.

I agree with the above comments and would be interested to know how others work around this 'feature'.

What does anyone find the best workaround for this? Creating titles using a text box? Creating multiple Queries? I'm open to hear how you've made this work for yourself. Maybe there are things I haven't thought of.

I have to agree with everyone above - if all changes in a query are going to affect all dashboards, I don't see why the name shouldn't change. The middle ground would be to make the name customizable for every dashboard. 

This sounds like Negative Billing and trying to create a feature out of a fault.  If I want to reuse a query I would clone the query and name it accordingly.  this is another example of creating extra work within Explore. During this new creation time (we are all forced to move to Explore by Feb 5th), there will be a lot of editing going on and having to delete and readd queries to dashboard seems very silly and a complete waste of time. 

Could you add an option for "Update in all dashboards" when changing the name of a query? I am having to remove then re-add the query from every dashboard I have when I change the name. 

There could also be the option to view back-end name in addition to display name when viewing the query in the dashboard. Currently the query name has been changed and you are viewing it in the dashboard it is not clear which query from the main query list is being used.
