Custom Links¶

Custom links are added to charts. Based on text box input and parameter configurations, the final chart-related link address is generated to view relevant data. Once custom links are added, they are displayed by default and can be directly viewed in the chart preview.

Getting Started¶

Go to Dashboard > Chart > Link;
Define the Name of the link;
Add a custom link to the chart;
Confirm.

Link Address¶

The link address is generated based on text box input and parameter configurations, used to associate the chart with relevant data.

Preset Links¶

The system provides preset links, allowing you to directly select the data type to associate without manually entering the full path.

Associated Data Type	Preset Link
LOG	`/logIndi/log/all`
APM	`/tracing/link/all`
Incident	`/tracing/errorTrack`
Profile	`/tracing/profile`
CONTAINERS	`/objectadmin/docker_containers?routerTabActive=ObjectadminDocker`
Pod	`/objectadmin/kubelet_pod?routerTabActive=ObjectadminDocker`
Processes	`/objectadmin/host_processes?routerTabActive=ObjectadminProcesses`
Dashboard	`/scene/dashboard/dashboardDetail`

Preset Parameters¶

Based on the selected preset links, the system provides corresponding parameters.

Parameter	Description
`time`	Time filter, can be used in Explorer and Dashboard. Link format: Pass query time through template variables: `&time=#{TR}` Query the last 15 minutes: `&time=15m` Set specific start and end times: `&time=1675247688602,1676457288602`
`variable`	View variable query, generally used in Dashboard views. Link format: `&variable={"host":"guance","service":"kodo"}`
`dashboard_id`	Dashboard ID, can be used to specify a Dashboard/built-in view. Link format: `&dashboard_id=dsbd_069b2b90f562123456789123456789`
`name`	Name, can be used to specify Dashboard name/note name/custom Explorer name, etc. Link format: `&name=Linux Host Monitoring View`
`query`	Tag filter or text search, generally used for data filtering in Explorer. Supports combining tag filters and text searches via `space`, `AND`, `OR`. Space is equivalent to AND.
`cols`	Explorer display columns, generally used to specify the display columns in Explorer. If not specified, the system default is displayed. Link format: `&cols=time,host,service,message`
`w`	Workspace ID, required when jumping across workspaces. Link format: `&w=wksp_40a73c6c2b024301a0b1d139e1234567`

Available Template Variables¶

The system provides default template variables available for the current chart link, such as #{TR}, #{T}, #{T.host}, #{V}, #{V.host}, etc., which can be directly used in link configurations.

Example¶

Taking the association of the current workspace CPU monitoring view as an example, the configuration is as follows:

/scene/dashboard/dashboardDetail?dashboard_id=dsbd_e4313axxxxxxxxxxxxxc4198775e&name=CPU Monitoring View&w=wksp_ed134a648xxxxxxxxxxxxx9a9c6115&time=#{TR}&variable=#{V.host}

Link Address Explanation:

Link Component	Parameter Configuration
Dashboard Address	`/scene/dashboard/dashboardDetail`
Dashboard ID	`dashboard_id=dsbd_e4313axxxxxxxxxxxxxc4198775e`
Dashboard Name	`name=CPU Monitoring View`
Workspace ID	`w=wksp_ed134a648xxxxxxxxxxxxx9a9c6115`
Time Variable	`time=#{TR}`
View Variable	`variable=#{V.host}`

Note

Variables can be entered after the URL link. If the URL link already contains time variables, tag variables, or view variables, modifications need to be made on the existing variables, otherwise conflicts may occur;
Multiple parameters are separated by ,, and multiple variables are linked by &;
The link address supports using relative path addresses.

Link Methods¶

Three link opening methods are supported:

New Page: Open the link in a new page;
Current Page: Open the link in the current page;
Slide-out Detail Page: Open the link in a side-sliding window on the current page.

Manage Links¶

The following operations are supported for chart links:

Enable/Disable Display: Control whether the associated link is displayed on the chart;
Edit: Modify the added link;
Delete: Delete the current custom link. Once deleted, it cannot be recovered. Please proceed with caution;
Restore to Default: Restore the modified built-in link to its initial state.
