Text box
Use text inputs to let dashboard users pass any number or string to the input that defines a token used throughout the dashboard.
The following options are available:
- defaultValue
- token
The following example uses tokens set by one text input to determine the number of results returned and another to set the color of various visualization properties.
Expand this window to copy/paste the dashboard definition into your own dashboard.
