Use a global Arcade function from one data expression to another (Dashboard)

Hello there,

is there a way to call a global custom function in multiple data expressions?

It would be great not to have to copy and paste the same code throughout my Year graphics, where the code is almost identical.

Thanks in advance

Teo

The short answer is "no". If it's possible, you can try to alter the Data Expression in such a way to get all the widgets to pull from a single data source.

Thanks for your reply @jcarlson.
It's not always possible or convenient to use the same data expression for all widgets. I hope that this functionality will be introduced sooner or later.
