Temporarily define interval in Dashboard for visualizations with Auto Intervals #7436
Comments
+1 by me. In our case, we have on dashboard data for 20 years and @timestamp for all visualizations is calculated by Kibana @auto to "month". In this case, there is no possibility, how to force "year". Or is it? It would be nice if I could force the histogram-interval for @auto (for example, in the date-range filter in the TOP menu). |
Filed #19601 which covers this use case. We probably wouldn't solve something like this only for intervals, but rather try to come up with a way to support a variety of embeddable defined parameters so many different configurations are overriddable at the dashboard panel level. |
Closing this in favour of #134706 because this functionality will be better covered by embeddable variables and controls which can change them. |
Most of our visualizations are created with the Date Histogram set to Auto. There are times in the Dashboard we would like to see a specific interval that may not line up with the auto interval decision made. These desires are sometimes fleeting and not worthy of modifying the underlying visualizations.
For example sometimes we want to quickly see daily intervals for the last 7 days however the auto interval will bucket 3 hours. Last 30 days does 12 hour buckets.
If we could have an option, in area of the Dashboard Date/Time or Refresh selections or even a JSON filter, to temporarily define a value to be used for intervals by all visualizations on the Dashboard that have Interval to Auto it would be great.
Example:
Visualizations 1 & 2 have Date Historgram set to Auto
Visualization 3 has Date Histogram set to 12 hours
Feature not set
Dashboard - Last 7 days
Visualization 1 - Displayed in 3 hour intervals
Visualization 2 - Displayed in 3 hour intervals
Visualization 3 - Displayed in 12 hours intervals
Feature set to 1 day
Dashboard - Last 7 days
Visualization 1 - Displayed in 1 day intervals
Visualization 2 - Displayed in 1 day intervals
Visualization 3 - Displayed in 12 hours intervals
This is similar to Change visualization from dashboard (edit in place) #5066 however this is more of a light touch. We don't necessarily want these visualizations changed permanently. Nor do we want to force modifications to the saved visualizations every time we want to tweak the view.
We definitely want to maintain the Auto interval settings for the bulk of our time in the Dashboard however have an option to override this temporarily. Visualizations with interval values set to something other than Auto could be left alone.
Thanks for your consideration.
