note this is a duplicate of #94280. It might be useful to track its impact on Dashboards specifically.
Time ranges are not rounded. This creates timestamps with
ms
precision. This prevents related contexts to share the same timerange (e.g. adding a filters in quick succession, navigating to and from a Dashboard, ...). Having consistent time-ranges are important because they better leverage query-caching on the Elasticsearch side.Not entirely sure whether this is the responsibility of Dashboards/Embeddable system, rather than an issue with the individual widgets not performing the rounding (e.g. this is a Lens/Maps issue). Either way, rounding should occur. Since we likely want to have consistent date-ranges within each Dashboard context, my hunch is that the Embeddable system/Dashboarding should enforce rounding.
