Parameter in the URL of Dashboard to provide value for drop-down filters

[Anthony_B]

Is there a way to apply filter for Project/Board/Issue Type in the dashboard using a parameter in the URL, similar to such filter in REST API Report Export? We’re using On-Prem version of EazyBI for JIRA DC.

For example
/plugins/servlet/eazybi/accounts/23/export/report/2898.json?selected_pages=[Project].[PROJECT_NAME]

Currently our users have to enter filter values in Dashboard UI manually which is causing many confusions.

Here is an example of dashboard URL
/plugins/servlet/eazybi/accounts/23/dashboards/42-team-metrics

Such Dashboard URL does not change when a value is selected in a drop-down “All Projects” or “All Boards” or “All Issue types”, which is a problem.

Hi @Anthony_B ,
It is not possible within eazyBI to pass page selection in the URL, but maybe you can benefit from Jira dashboards?
Create different dashboards per team and save different page selections in those dashboards, see an example here:

Managing standard reports for multiple teams

Hi @adam.gilmore, Welcome to eazyBI community! We don’t have a report “template” option, but we have two ways how to publish reports that you may want to use, and that would give a similar outcome. In both cases, you will have only one report where you change things that are the same, but page filters will be saved in eazyBI dashboard or Jira dashboard. First, you create default report for all teams (without applying filter value, only having needed dimensions in pages) [Report-level] Use …

Another option would be to save dynamic page selections in eazyBI, e.g., “Current month,” so the filter adjusts when the month changes?

best,

Just in case someone else stumbles across this like I did.

EazyBI DOES now support URL parameters. See Use public access token and URL Parameters for Page Selections - #2 by oskars.laganovskis for details of the selected_page parameter.
