Is there any way to display the Last refreshed Date and Time of Data reloaded in kibana.

For example: Last refreshed on : 20-01-2020 04.30.00 PM

Thank you!

I don't think there is a regular way to do this - but it sounds very helpful. Feel free to [create a feature request](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new?template=Feature_request.md) in the Github repository to give it more visibility.

Till then you could probably work around it with a vega visualization with a spec like this:

```auto
{
  "$schema": "https://vega.github.io/schema/vega/v3.json",
  "title": "Last refreshed",
  "data": {
    "url": {
      "%context%": true,
      "%timefield%": "@timestamp",
      "index": "_all",
      "body": {
        "size": 0
      }
    }
  },
  "marks": [
    {
      "type": "text",
      "encode": {
        "enter": {
          "fill": {"value": "#000"},
          "fontSize": {"value": "30"},
          "text": {"signal": "timeFormat(now(), '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S')"}
        },
        "update": {"x": {"value": "0"}, "y": {"value": "0"}}
      }
    }
  ]
}

```
