Connect Dashboard Refresh

SUMMARY

This tool refreshes the participant's connect.cloudresearch.com dashboard on a user defined interval. The user can also toggle on and off the sound alert for upward count changes to the project cards.

This Extension works best with one connect.cloudresearch.com dashboard tab open at a time. The badge on the extension should be counting down.

- Pin the extension to the extension bar.

- There should be a blue badge with a number on the Extension icon in the extension bar.
- Click the extension Icon and update the interval to your desired length. (optional)
- Click the extension Icon and press the start button.
- The blue badge should be counting down once elapsed the dashboard panel should refresh.
- If the project card count has gone up a sound will alert at {interval -2}, so if you set it to 10
seconds it will try to alert at 8 seconds.
