Adding timerangepicker to Dashboard of Report Panels??

Hello Everyone,

This may be an odd question, but I am wondering how (if possible) to add a useful timerangepicker to a dashboard in which all panels are from existing reports.  In the past, the dashboard has just been run for "Last 7 Days", which all of the reports are set up for.  Recently, a feature has been desired to allow the user to select the time range for which the data will be presented.  Obviously I can add the timerangepicker and submit button pretty easily, but how do I tie the chosen time range to the reports in the panels without recreating everything?

Thank you for your time and assistance!

Hi @sarge338,

You can make reports using your time_token by editing your dashboard source , you should add earliest and latest tags into the search tag like below sample;

  <row>
    <panel>
      <event>
        <search ref="test_report">
          <earliest>$time_token.earliest$</earliest>
          <latest>$time_token.latest$</latest>
        </search>
        <option name="list.drilldown">none</option>
      </event>
    </panel>
  </row>
