I'm very interested in using the dashboard variable feature. However, the documentation on how to use it is sparse (ref: https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO45/Dashboard+Variables). I've tried to use it in both a metric and an ADQL query.
In the metric, it lets me choose the variable in the application dropwdown (i have it as an application) - but the 3rd linked dropdown does not activate. Note that I do have a default set.
In the ADQL query, I can't find a way to introduce the variable. My variable name is ChosenApp, which shows at the top as $ChosenApp, I've taken a valid query that produces data:
SELECT series(eventTimestamp, "30m"), count(*) FROM transactions where application = "RealAppName"
and tried to get it to take the variable - to no avail. Items I've tried replacing "RealAppName" with include:
$ChosenApp "$ChosenApp" ChosenApp "ChosenApp" "{ChosenApp}" "{$ChosenApp}" {ChosenApp} {$ChosenApp} "@ChosenApp" @ChosenApp
I'm out of ideas on both and google was no additional help. Is anyone able to provide further instruction on what to try?
