Link Dashboard for graphs

Products

• DX Application Performance Management

Issue/Introduction

Currently, the links only work for tables and some customers requested that it also work for graphs. The customer users currently view a graph of metrics and click on a single metric to isolate it in the metric tree, The link variables are not being populated when it is used in a graph.

There was also a documentation update. The URL that is presented in techdocs, {APM_URL}/link/apm_metric/view?t_id_cohort=${__org.name}&start_time=${__from}&end_time=${__to}&metric=.*--:${__attributeNameSpecifier:percentencode}, does not link back to a single metric, but multiple metrics. To link back to a single metric this URL should be used instead: {APM_URL}/link/apm_metric_view?t_id_cohort=${__org.name}&start_time=${__from}&end_time=${__to}&metric=.*--:(?%3D${__attributeNameSpecifier:percentencode}).*${__data.fields[0]:regexperc}.*

Can we do this? links in graphs, not just tables?
