`chartsInScope` references are not fixed during a Dashboard import

rdubois-kh commented 11 months ago

When a dashboard is imported using the ImportDashboardsCommand (v1), the charts id references are replaced from withing the position_metadata and json_metadata with the ids of the newly created charts in the target instance. During that process, it looks like some IDs have been missed in the native filters configuration. Indeed, the chartsInScope references are never replaced with the newly created charts ids.

How to reproduce the bug

Create a dummy dashboard, with a dummy chart
Export the dashboard
Update the ZIP file chart file, by replacing the uuid of the chart with a new random uuid
Update the ZIP file dashboard file, by replacing the uuid of the chart with a new random uuid, and by replacing the position.CHART.meta.uuid entry with the chart new uuid generated in step 3 above
Re-import the dashboard
Look at the newly create dashboard payload. The json_metadata native filters chartsInScope is still made of the former chart ID

Expected results

The imported dashboard json_metadata payload chartsInScope should be made of charts ID which compose this dashboard, in order the filtersInScope and filtersOutScope to be accuratelly computed.

Actual results

The imported dashboard json_metadata payload chartsInScope is made of old charts ID which don't compose this new dashboard. It results in the filtersInScope and filtersOutScope to not be correct after import.

There's some discussion happening about using UUIDs for charts, which may impact this workflow a bit (cc @ville). Meanwhile, we'll try to get some attention on the PR... thanks for opening that (and the tests)!

Thanks @rusackas. We recently found some related issues with import of dashboards and charts in scope, at some other places of the JSON metadata. Please hold off in reviewing the PR. I'll adjust it with some additional fixes.

@rusackas the PR has been updated with a more complete/exhaustive fix. Thanks.
