Fields referenced in links are implicitly added to the query, but not shown in the result data unless explicitly included. Note: Avoid referencing a dimension with more than one value for a given value of the dimension on which the link is defined, as it can impact aggregations and seemingly create duplicate rows.

Syntax

<dimension_name>:
  links:
    - url: <url_template>
      label: <link_label>
      icon_url: <optional_icon_url>

Properties

dimension_name
object
The name of the dimension. Dimension names must:
  • Be unique within the view
  • Start with a letter
  • Contain only alphanumeric characters and underscores

Examples

To inject the corresponding field into the filter URL structure, navigate to a filtered dashboard in your browser and then swap in the parameterized (dynamic) URL.
