Problems with timeframe Dashboard

[davidvm02-giss]

Good afternoon,

We have a trace dashboard with two links that redirect to the classic backtrace and service flow views for the service selected via the variable.

I’d like the URL to not only use the service via the variable but also retain the timeframe I’ve selected on the dashboard, so that the time range is maintained. I’ve tried this approach but it isn’t working.

Does anyone know how to make this apply to the URL?

I’ve attached some screenshots.

Regards, David.

Hello @davidvm02-giss ,

Maybe I got you here, 

In the Tile you should have a Link option in the Visual tab, you can simply add that From and To variables to the URL you made (in my perspective you should be able to use the var anywhere in the dashboard), check below:

I hope it helps 😀

Hello @MaximilianoML , thank you for your reply,
In our case, as you mentioned, that didn’t work for us because it’s Markdown.
What we eventually did, with the help of @elenaperez from Dynatrace, was to format the timestamp in a DQL variable to `unixMillisFromTimestamp`; I’ve attached the solution.

Regards, David.

Make sense now @davidvm02-giss! I didn't noticed that was a MD, shame on me 😂
