Hi @rashid47010,

Hope you're well, this could be due to one of two things :

1- You were editing while someone else was doing an edit at the same time and they saved their changes which overwrote yours.
2- Someone modified the dashboard you created.

Best way to avoid this kind of problems is to make sure that write permissions are disabled for the roles that shouldn't modify the dashboard. In your case you should be the only one with write permissions and other users should have read only.

Another way to avoid this is to regularly backup your dashboards and knowledge objects that helps avoid this kind of issues.

Cheers,
David
