How to build quick link to another dashboard with existing filter values

[Shreyans]

I have a funnel dashboard that measures the conversion across the major steps of our user journey. There are a bunch of filters in this dashboard. Let's call this dashboard "A".

There's another dashboard that measures the second level conversion, i.e., conversion rate across the sub-steps between each major step of dashboard A. Let's call this dashboard "B". It has the same filters as the dashboard A.

I want to build a dynamic link in dashboard A that takes me to dashboard B and automatically applies the same filters that were being used in A. This sounds a pretty classic solution for link parameter using Liquid syntax but that's not the case here since the link is not to be created for a particular dimension field. I need a single link on dashboard A that takes me directly to dashboard B.

My first thought was exploring the Buttons option but I couldn't get far. It didn't seem to support the Liquid style parametrization.

Hi @Shreyans - Passing the same exact filters from one dashboard to another isn't really possible unless you're embedding the dashboards into an application of some-kind. You can make parameterized links - but capturing the full value of the filtered url is challenging without javascript. You could try and store the filter values as parameters but this will be challenging if you're trying to use more than one filter. 

I built a tabbed_dashboard extension that does this as an extension if you're interested in trying it out - it's open source so not officially supported but could get you started.

Thanks for the response Zach. I'll explore this extension.

Doesn't Liquid support exactly that? I was hoping there would a solution for this similar to how we can build custom links using the "link" parameter for a dimension.

Hey @Zach_A may I know how to implement this tabbed extension which you have provided to my dashboard..?
