Databases Reference
In-Depth Information
You may have noticed the three new buttons that appeared at the top of the
dashboard after we clicked on the
On
button:
•
Edit XML
allows you to directly edit the XML underlying this dashboard.
We will use this later in the chapter.
•
Edit permissions
takes you to the standard permissions panel that we have
seen before.
• Clicking on
New panel
opens the following dialog to allow us to add new
panels directly:
Saved search
lets you choose an existing saved search. This allows you to reuse
queries on different dashboards or build queries without a dashboard in mind.
Inline search string
lets us build a query directly in the dashboard. This is often
convenient as many searches will have no purpose but for a particular dashboard,
so there is no reason for these searches to appear in the menus. This also reduces
external dependencies, making it easier to move the dashboard to another app.
Be sure to either specify an
Earliest time
value, or append
| head
to your query
to limit the number of results, or the query will be run over
All time
.
