Splunk Search

annotation in query url

I would like to generate a splunk URL that has:

1) the query to render

2) the visualization to render

3) some query annotations.

the query, the visualizations are all fine.  I'm not sure how to get the annotations into the query.

For example: take a look at the following query which I have, I can render a proper chart proper visualization (can cut and paste the url and someone can re-render the same).... but how about adding an annotation to the chart (I put red lines for a particular timeline) which I want the user to focus at.  Is it possible to say please draw a line at this epoch time, and another line at this epoch time?

If you know the time period you want them to focus on, why not set the earliest and latest times for your search in the url?

I want them to see the context before and after. To help convey the significance
