Custom dashboard forms

[fabio1]

You probably know that markdown files in your model can be used to keep in-project documentation. But, they can also accept some whitelisted HTML markup. And, since that markup includes forms and input elements, you can make some really customized prompts & forms that can feed into dashboard filters or explore parameters:

Here’s some sample markup to get you started. Just make sure your input names match your dashboard filters and voila!

<form action="/dashboards/1" method="get">
<h2><center>My Parameterized Report</center></h2>
<input type="hidden" name="run" value="1" />
<div style="display:flex">
  <div style="margin:0 1em">
    <select type="text" id="myform-state" name="State">
      <option value="AK">Alaska</option>
      <option value="FL">Florida</option>
      <option value="NY">New York</option>
    </select>
    <br /><label for="myform-state" style="color:#AAA;font-size:0.8em"> State</label><br />
  </div>
  <div style="margin:0 1em">
    <input type="text" id="myform-city" name="City" /><br />
    <label for="myform-city" style="color:#AAA;font-size:0.8em">City</label>
  </div>
  <div style="margin:0 1em">
    <input type="date" id="myform-date" name="Date" /><br />
    <label for="myform-date" style="color:#AAA;font-size:0.8em">Date</label>
  </div>
  <div style="margin:0 1em">
   <input type="submit" value="Go" name="" style="height:2em" />
  </div>
</div>
<details>
  <summary>More Options</summary>
  <table>

  <tr><td><label for="myform-opt0">Datetime: </label></td>

  <label for="myform-mode-month">Month</label>
  </td></tr>
  <tr><td><b>Pick any:</b></td>

  <input type="checkbox" id="myform-check-a" name="Checks" value="web" checked="checked" />
  <label for="myform-check-a" >Web</label> &nbsp;
  <input type="checkbox" id="myform-check-b" name="Checks" value="android" checked="checked"  />
  <label for="myform-check-week">Android</label> &nbsp;
  <input type="checkbox" id="myform-check-c" name="Checks" value="ios" checked="checked"  />
  <label for="myform-check-c">iOS</label>
  </td></tr>
</details>
</form>

Once your form is ready, you can direct users to it, without them needing developer access, using this URL pattern:
https://<your-domain>/projects/<project-name>/documents/<filename>.md
