I have a dash-board panel that works for any user but when clicking the loop to open in search, the search query gets truncated making my search invalid. this works fine as admin user. Is there a config file to control this?

By the way I have found the issue for this, the browser has limitation some how, I tried in Firefox and work fine.
Microsoft Internet Explorer (Browser)
Microsoft states that the maximum length of a URL in Internet Explorer is 2,083 characters, with no more than 2,048 characters in the path portion of the URL. Attempts to use URLs longer than this produced a clear error message in Internet Explorer.
