Adding filters with "global" parameters based on specific labels.

Waldispühl Armin

Hi there

I am working with a dashboard with several filters. Each of these filters check for a specific label.

These labels are periodically changing and each time I need to change all the filters.

Is it possible to define something like one-global-parameter, which I could use, i.e. if the label changes that I only need to change this parameter in one place instead of editing all the different filters?

Could not find anything in the FAQs.

Many thanks for your response.

Cheers

Armin

The short answer is no, filters do not have "global variables". The workaround would be to use something like Custom Charts and the simple search gadget which can control other Custom Charts gadgets on the dashboard. There are other apps in the Marketplace that could do this as well.

Hi @Waldispühl Armin

Do you mean that you have many filters, and each label is noted once per filter? Or instead perhaps there are many filters, and many reference the same label?

If it is the second case, you could reduce the number of filters requiring updates by chaining them. For example...Let's assume you have these two filters:
