Getting Data In

Dashboard: Include $job.message$ information

Hello,
I have a dashboard which populates the results of a query in a table form.
The results of this table is sometimes not feasible as the job of the query pops out a "truncation of data" message.
I would like to know if there is somehow in which I can pop out the warning message of the job in the same dashboard to not have to drilldown in the query and look for error messages in the job.
I know it is possible to configure with token $job.message$ but I do not know what i have to do to modify the script: how and what exactly i have to write to set the token in the original query and how I can populate the data in another panel.
Many thanks,
Jaime
