Hi,
I want to create a dashboard on the behavior of specific groups I track with the Accounts Addon.
This dashboard should be embedded/linked from another page. So what I would love to do is create a URL/link to the dashboard and add a parameter with the name of the respective group to the URL and have the dashboard filter on that.
Is there a way to do this?

Unfortunately, that isn’t possible for any dashboard link.
Query parameters as filters will work only in the dashboard UI and not dynamically with the URL.
Moreover, any change or filter application to the static dashboard in the UI modifies the URL to a new one -
https://analytics.eu.amplitude.com/YOURCOMPANY/dashboard/id/edit/<id>However, if you are looking to create any particular chart type dynamically with some parameters and want the resultant graphs in JSON format, then you can take a look at the Dashboard REST API .
The naming is confusing here since it’s meant for charts and not a “dashboard” in particular.
Hope this helps.

From what I know, if you embed a dashboard via iframe,etc in your custom page/website, the dashboard filters won’t be available to query on in the embed view. The embed portion is normally view only.
So the only way to query on your account group would be to use that as a dashboard filter parameter on the actual dashboard link.
Let me know if I interpreted your use case correctly. Hope this helps.
Thanks Saish. Perhaps I’m missing something, but I don’t quite get it to work.
Imagine there is the dashboard
https://analytics.eu.amplitude.com/MYCOMPANY/dashboard/d-k775vhI’d like to add something like
https://analytics.eu.amplitude.com/MYCOMPANY/dashboard/d-k775vh?userid=12345To filter the report by the user id.

This feature is extremely valuable and should be considered part of the key “accounts addon” value proposition.
I have created a dashboard with all the key metrics for account health. We have a construction workforce management app, and for examples KPIs we track for account health are:
1. weekly active schedulers
2. weekly active labor planners
3. Weekly active dispatch message readers
We have created a dashboard that has these key KPIs, and it’s most valuable when filtered down to one account to see how active that account’s teams are over time. It helps our implementation teams and account managers assess how successful an account is with our software.
I would love to be able to embed this dashboard for every account in my customer success portal -- when my team looks at the “homepage” for account Acme Construction a version of the dashboard filtered down to just Acme should be available. I need to be able to call the chart with the Acme filter dynamically with the URL parameters to succeed at this.
I can do this with metabase today! It’s amazing and my team loves it.
