Dashboards and saved queries
Dashboards and saved queries keep useful OQL out of chat history and incident notes. Use saved queries for reusable shortcuts. Use dashboards for panels that refresh with the active scope.
Save useful OQL
Section titled “Save useful OQL”Use Explore for scratch work. When a query is useful:
- Save reusable query shortcuts as saved queries.
- Pin dashboard panels for queries that refresh with dashboard scope.
- Edit dashboard panel queries as OQL.
Dashboard documents use the oriel.dashboard/v1 schema and are versioned in the
metadata store. Dashboard versions keep previous specs for export and recovery.
