We need a place for dynamic data

Hi All,

Curious how much this view is held or if there's something sneaky deep in the toolset i'm unaware of.

If you want to monitor something that can produce a table responses with an unknown amount of rows, you cant really put it anywhere good.

You can put it places, sure, but nowhere that works well.

-If you do custom SQL, you cant refer to it with SWQL which rules modern dashboards out. You also cant really alert on easily unless it joins well to stuff in SWQL.

-If you do an application monitor, you've got to split it into 10s or something and pre-configure the variables, which means that either if they're dynamic they break, or you need to name them something generic in which case how do you tell what's going on? Really hard to refer to multi-statistics too.

-If you use an API monitor (first off it's got to be an API), and then you can mostly just count the size, because you've also got to pre-configure the ValuesToMonitor
