Link URL Syntax

Linking to other dashboards can be achieved with the following syntax: /db/d/dashboard_UID.

E.g. Linking to the default Device Overview dashboard would be /db/d/StatseekerDefaultDeviceOverview.

If the target dashboard uses a variable as a dashboard filter, then you can set the variable values by appending ?var-variableName=CellValue.

E.g. Passing the current cell value to the device variable in the Device Viewer: /db/d/StatseekerDefaultDeviceOverview?var-Device=${__cell}.

Cell references:

  • ${__cell} – current cell
  • ${__cell_n} – nth cell in current row, first cell is index 0

Linking to other resources such as Statseeker reports or 3rd party web content can be achieved by specifying the complete URl of the resource.
