Enhanced Ad hoc filters support
Because Ad hoc filters can’t be reliably implemented on SQL data sources, we’re introducing a new way forward. Starting with this release, you can now query a dataset from a first panel using a SQL data source, then build the rest of your dashboard on top of that dataset—and use ad hoc filters to drill into it.
This is enabled by two key enhancements:
- Dashboard data source support - You can now define ad hoc filters in dashboards that use the
-- Dashboard --data source. - Set filters from the bar chart tooltip - Previously, setting ad hoc filter values was only possible on table visualizations. Now, you can do this from the bar chart as well.
Together, these updates unlock a flexible workflow: a single source panel defines the dataset, and ad hoc filters make it easy to explore and refine.
