- Created a script to automatically refresh a specified dashboard at 12 AM every day. - Implemented functionality to update the `last_refreshed` field on the target dashboard in `pa_dashboards` to simulate refresh. - Added README.md with setup instructions, script details, and usage notes. This feature ensures dashboards are refreshed without manual intervention, enhancing data relevance for daily usage.

This field does not exist on W and X instances. Additionally, ServiceNow dashboards load their data on open and can be refreshed through a page. Reports can be run on a schedule for emails
