Dashboards & Visualizations

Hello,

I have two dashboards linked to each other, and i am passing the parameters for the linked dashboard in the drilldown url. The values passed for one of the drop downs is having a dynamic values option, coming through a search. My question is how to actually pass that parameter in the URL.

@macadminrohit ,

It shouldn't have any difference whether it's a dynamic or static values in the target dashboard as its based on the token. Try setting the token of the target dashboard with the click.value

  <row>
    <panel>
      <table>
        <search>
          <query>index=_internal|stats count by sourcetype</query>
          <earliest>-15m</earliest>
          <latest>now</latest>
        </search>
        <option name="drilldown">cell</option>
        <drilldown>
          <link target="_blank">/app/search/target_dashboard?form.sourcetype=$click.value$</link>
        </drilldown>
      </table>
    </panel>
  </row>

target dashboard has

<form>
  <label>Target_Dashboard</label>
  <fieldset submitButton="false">
    <input type="dropdown" token="sourcetype">
      <label>Sourcetype</label>
      <fieldForLabel>sourcetype</fieldForLabel>
      <fieldForValue>sourcetype</fieldForValue>
      <search>
        <query>index=_*|stats count by sourcetype</query>
        <earliest>-15m</earliest>
        <latest>now</latest>
      </search>
    </input>
  </fieldset>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <table>
        <search>
          <query>index=_* sourcetype=$sourcetype$|stats count by sourcetype,index</query>
          <earliest>-15m</earliest>
          <latest>now</latest>
        </search>
        <option name="drilldown">none</option>
      </table>
    </panel>
  </row>
</form>

Hi @renjith.nair , the dropdown which has the details i am looking for is dependent on another dropdown menu item. So ideally this drodown menu should be getting the needed value from the drilldown link passed through the other dashboard.
