Dashboards & Visualizations

Problem with dynamic drilldown to dashboards

Im trying to link one dashboard to another, using a token. But im not sure where to use the token as a reference in the search to the target dashboard.

My link is working fine I guess, the result that i click shows in the URL:

 <drilldown>
              <link target="_self">/app/search/pp_uol_resolve_drilldown?data_token=$click.value$</link>
    </drilldown>

Url: en-US/app/search/pp_uol_resolve_drilldown?data_token=2017-07-18

And the search for the destiny dashboard:

<query>index="uolresolve_venda_diaria" COD_INSCRIPTION_STATUS="I" 
| dedup IDT_INSCRIPTION ,COD_INSCRIPTION_STATUS sortby +_time 
| eval DATA_CANC=strftime(_time,"%Y-%m-%d %T")
| eval DATA_CRIACAO=strftime((strptime('DAT_INSCRIPTION',"%Y-%m-%d %T")),"%Y-%m-%d %T")
| eval QTDE_DIAS=round((strptime(DATA_CANC, "%F %T") - strptime(DATA_CRIACAO, "%F %T")) / 86400)
| eval data=strftime((strptime('DATA_CANC',"%Y-%m-%d")),"%Y-%m-%d")
| eval rel14=relative_time(now(),"-14d")
| eval data14=strftime(rel14,"%Y-%m-%d")
| table data,IDT_INSCRIPTION,QTDE_DIAS
| where data = $data_token$ 
| sort -QTDE_DIAS
</query>

But this doesn't works. Any help or tips?

You should use the CDATA tag in the source dashboard, and you should wrap the token with quotes in the drilldown. Try this for the drilldown.

<drilldown>
   <link target="_self">
     <![CDATA[/app/search/pp_uol_resolve_drilldown?data_token=$click.value$]]>
  </link>
</drilldown>

And then use this $data_token|s$ in the drilldown dashboard when you reference the token.
