Linking to the Host dashboard using a variable

[wouterdt]

Hi

So I'm building this dashboard that shows some Grail data per host.

The host gets selected using a variable.

I want to make a markdown tile on that dashboard with a link to the Host page for that host

my variable has the hostname but the url of the host dashboard looks like /ui/apps/dynatrace.classic.hosts/ui/entity/HOST-13A1850A9CC88A45

I can't define hidden variables that can lookup that ID for me based upon the host variable AFAICS

What would be the best approach to get that ID into the markdown tile, or am I missing something or doing this wrong?

Does this work?

[Host page](ui/entity/HOST-13A1850A9CC88A45?gtf=-2h&gf=all)

(The timeframe you want to go with might be different of course)
