You should be able to implement it if you need it.
We want the same feature.
Have thought about this myself - May not be the most practical, but would a headless browser initiated via crontab do the job? That would allow you to capture all charts and tables on a dashboard. Meanwhile crontab is very flexible with scheduling.
Any tools to regularly screenshot web pages would do too. e.g. https://www.stillio.com/
Don't see how else dashboards / graphics can be generated serverside since all the charts are rendered client-side in the browser.

Maybe phantom.js could be of help? Though it would also be client side rendering I guess. Haven't taken much look at it
We use python to take a capture of the dashboard, and send it with HTML.
It seems not so good, but it works.
I'm also interested in this, as it's one of the main features we use in Tableau currently.
@jackpgao I am looking at implementing this feature. What are the issues with python capture? Resolution?
@SpyderRivera
Hi, use phantomjs to capture the whole Dashboard to a picture, then put it to an HTTP server dir, and you can visit the pic via a browser. In the end, you send an email with HTML format and the receiver can view the pic via email.
But there are 2 things to concern:
One is to force refresh the dashboard, cause superset use cache.
The other one is that, if the height of the pic is very long, in some email client it may crash, such as outlook, but with the Mac email client, it's ok to show the big pic.
