API Stability Long-Term

The updateDashboardFilter() GraphQL mutation may be used to update a dashboard filter in LogScale.

For more information on dashboards, see the Dashboards & Widgets documentation page. You may also want to look at the Query Filters reference page in the language syntax section for related information.

Syntax

Below is the syntax for the updateDashboardFilter() mutation field:

graphql
updateDashboardFilter(
     id: string!
     filterId: string!
     name: string!
     prefixFilter: string!
   ): Dashboard!

Below is an example of how this mutation field might be used:

Raw
graphql
mutation {
  updateDashboardFilter(
      id: "8yHvhPf8GJHDZaP9MRrCSlcvfcbHyInY",
      filterId: "abc123",
      name: "Errors",
      prefixFilter: "server1_"
  )
  { id }
}
Mac OS or Linux (curl)
shell
curl -v -X POST $YOUR_LOGSCALE_URL/graphql \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \

{"query" : "mutation {
  updateDashboardFilter(
      id: \"8yHvhPf8GJHDZaP9MRrCSlcvfcbHyInY\",
      filterId: \"abc123\",
      name: \"Errors\",
      prefixFilter: \"server1_\"
