Dashboards & Visualizations

Drilldown on multiple charts in a dashboard

Hi,

I have a dashboard with 3 panels:

1 - area chart using token1 and token2

2 - bar chart using token2 and token3

3 - panel ( table ) populates data based on drilldown on above charts

Whenever I drilldown on area chart, drilldown works fine.

Whenever I drilldown on bar chart, drilldown works fine for bar chart. However, it also refreshes the area chart.  Is there a way to stop area chart from refreshing, when I drilldown on bar chart?

This behaviour is due to tkn_search_txt token which is used in Area chart also.

So what I suggest just change the token name to tkn_search_txt_1 in both drilldown and use it in table search.

Like this.

<form theme="light">

    <fieldset submitButton="false" autoRun="false">
