Hi guys,

I have following problem:

I want to clone a Dashboard multiple times. The Dashboard has Dropdown Inputs with search querys populating results to choose from.
To save time I want to set the default Value of the Dropdown to any result found in the Dropdown-Search-Query. I dont want to have the Message "Waiting for Input" in the Panels. I want the dashboard to start building the panels immediatly.
The most easy way is to set the default Value as a macro and change the macro after cloning the dashboard. But I did not get any solutions in my tries with the Macro as the default Value.

Thanks for your help!
