Same Variable Name on Different Datasets

Hello,

I was wondering if there's a workaround to use the same variable name across different datasets? Right now it seems like variable names need to be unique and used across the instance. And so when we try to create some generic names, the variables would need to have different names. Is it possible for one set of variables only used in say one specific dashboard?

Thank you!

    variables are unique per instance and not per dataset like beast modes are. You won’t be able to have one with the same name. You’d need to create a new one
