Modern Dashboard Question - Linking in a Widget

I am setting up some modern dashboards and have a question. In the image below I have critical highlighted - can I make that a link that would go to another page that would have just the critical nodes or for now is the only thing we can do is add a link to a widget? Thanks!!

In the config, use the Widget Link URL, and point it to anything. I often send them to a report or a classic dash.

Ok thanks. That is kind of what I figured but just wanted to check to see if there were any other magic tricks lol.

Yes,I'm also interested in configuring a url link for each status of node e.g up status has a clickable link to another page with up nodes, down status nodes has also clickable link to another page of down nodes and so on.

Have anyone found a magic trick like this.

Tienes que crear un dashboard moderno e incrustar el SWQL como el ejemplo que viene en la documentación, posteriormente le tipo de grafico puede ser por tipo dona.

Hi, did you ever figure this out? Seems from this post you can do it if you map the DetailsURL in your query, but no details on how to actually do that. Thanks very much.

I know this is a late response but just in case you didn't find the answer then ...

First a caveat. As far as I know this only works for tables or charts and not for KPI type widgets. By KPI I mean a widget that just returns a number such as the number of down nodes - there is no option that I can see or have found that allows a URL style link.

All that said, then ] for example lets say you have a list of nodes and various stats about them and you want to be able to navigate direct to each node from the MD. You first need ensure that you have the DetailsUrl as a part of your code. A very simple example would be:

SELECT Caption, DetailsUrl
FROM Orion.Nodes

Which would pull back stuff that looks like this:

Once you have this in your code you then need to go edit the MD widget and configure the "Caption column" like this:

Your choice of whether it opens in the same window or not. You'll see the popped out resource change to a light blue text and once saved it becomes a hyperlink.

For KPI style widgets we take this approach:

And then we create a separate table based widget to display the down nodes. You could do the same for UP I guess, but in the above example it is easier to see what is down than up. We just set the WHERE statement to include Status = '2'.

HTH?

Hi @jm_sysadmin

can you please let me know how can I add Map Widget in Modern dashboard.

jm_sysadmin

Orion Maps are supported in the current version (not Network Atlas). Just add a blank widget and search for the Mapp Widget from the empty dash like any other addition.

I am also trying to implement this in our environment. But as of now no luck.
