Dashboards & Visualizations

How can i make a drilldown just on a specific column of a table in Dashboard Studio?

Hi there,

I am trying to convert dashboards from Simple XML to Dashboard Studio, but there are certain features that seem like they don't exist.

In this particular use case, i have a table with multiple fields like user, website and so forth.

What I want is Drilldowns, which only work when a certain column is clicked:

  • When clicked on the "user" column, I want to set the field of the column and row as a token.
  • When clicked on the "website" column, I want to open a link to whois of this domain.

This works quite well with Simple XML, as i can just set conditions on the field:

 

<drilldown>
  <condition field="website">
    <link target="_blank">https://who.is/whois/$row.website$</link>
  </condition>
  <condition field="user">
    <set token="username">$row.user$</set>
  </condition>
</drilldown>

 

 

But how do I do that in JSON in the Dashboard Studio? I know that by adding multiple entries with "eventHandlers", I can specify multiple different types of drilldowns, even though the UI just allows you one:

 

"eventHandlers": [
    {
        "type": "drilldown.setToken",
        "options": {
            "tokens": [
                {
                    "token": "username",
                    "key": "row.user.value"
                }
            ]
        }
    },
    {
        "type": "drilldown.customUrl",
        "options": {
            "url": "https://who.is/whois/$row.website.value$",
            "newTab": true
        }
    }
]

 

However, I can't find a way to set a condition on a field like in Simple XML.

Can anybody tell me how i can do this with JSON? Docs don't mention real coding with JSON.

Thanks!
