Dashboard

/api/dashboard endpoints.

Delete the publicly-accessible link to this Dashboard.

PARAMS:

  • dashboard-id

DELETE /api/dashboard/:id

Delete a Dashboard.

This will remove also any questions/models/segments/metrics that use this database.

PARAMS:

  • id

DELETE /api/dashboard/:id/cards

Remove a DashboardCard from a Dashboard.

PARAMS:

  • id

  • dashcardId value must be a valid integer greater than zero.

GET /api/dashboard/

Get Dashboards. With filter option f (default all), restrict results as follows:

  • all - Return all Dashboards.
  • mine - Return Dashboards created by the current user.
  • archived - Return Dashboards that have been archived. (By default, these are excluded.).

PARAMS:

  • f value may be nil, or if non-nil, value must be one of: all, archived, mine.

GET /api/dashboard/:dashboard-id/dashcard/:dashcard-id/execute

Fetches the values for filling in execution parameters. Pass PK parameters and values to select.

PARAMS:

  • dashboard-id value must be an integer greater than zero.

  • dashcard-id value must be an integer greater than zero.

  • parameters value must be a valid JSON string.

GET /api/dashboard/:id

Get Dashboard with ID.

PARAMS:

  • id

GET /api/dashboard/:id/params/:param-key/search/:query

Fetch possible values of the parameter whose ID is :param-key that contain :query. Optionally restrict these values by passing query parameters like other-parameter=value e.g.

;; fetch values for Dashboard 1 parameter 'abc' that contain 'Cam' and are possible when parameter 'def' is set
;; to 100
 GET /api/dashboard/1/params/abc/search/Cam?def=100

Currently limited to first 1000 results.

PARAMS:

  • id

  • param-key

  • query

  • query-params

GET /api/dashboard/:id/params/:param-key/values

Fetch possible values of the parameter whose ID is :param-key. If the values come directly from a query, optionally restrict these values by passing query parameters like other-parameter=value e.g.

;; fetch values for Dashboard 1 parameter 'abc' that are possible when parameter 'def' is set to 100
GET /api/dashboard/1/params/abc/values?def=100.

PARAMS:

  • id

  • param-key

  • query-params

GET /api/dashboard/:id/related

Return related entities.

PARAMS:

  • id

GET /api/dashboard/:id/revisions

Fetch Revisions for Dashboard with ID.

PARAMS:

  • id

GET /api/dashboard/embeddable

Fetch a list of Dashboards where enable_embedding is true. The dashboards can be embedded using the embedding endpoints and a signed JWT.

GET /api/dashboard/params/valid-filter-fields

Utility endpoint for powering Dashboard UI. Given some set of filtered Field IDs (presumably Fields used in parameters) and a set of filtering Field IDs that will be used to restrict values of filtered Fields, for each filtered Field ID return the subset of filtering Field IDs that would actually be used in a chain filter query with these Fields.

e.g. in a chain filter query like

GET /api/dashboard/10/params/PARAM_1/values?PARAM_2=100

Assume PARAM_1 maps to Field 1 and PARAM_2 maps to Fields 2 and 3. The underlying MBQL query may or may not filter against Fields 2 and 3, depending on whether an FK relationship that lets us create a join against Field 1 can be found. You can use this endpoint to determine which of those Fields is actually used:

GET /api/dashboard/params/valid-filter-fields?filtered=1&filtering=2&filtering=3
;; ->
{1 [2 3]}

Results are returned as a map of

`filtered` Field ID -> subset of `filtering` Field IDs that would be used in chain filter query.

PARAMS:

  • filtered value must satisfy one of the following requirements: 1) value must be a valid integer greater than zero. 2) value must be an array. Each value must be a valid integer greater than zero. The array cannot be empty.

  • filtering value may be nil, or if non-nil, value must satisfy one of the following requirements: 1) value must be a valid integer greater than zero. 2) value must be an array. Each value must be a valid integer greater than zero. The array cannot be empty.
