Placeholder {name} is not resolved in text/content

[jaceksan]

Below you can find example code. In panel text, attribute content, if value contains variable defined in --config file, it is not resolved.

• config file rack-na1.yaml (--config)

  context:
  elastic-host: "myhost.com"

• dashboard file vertica.yaml

• name: notice-documentation rows:
  • row: title: Documentation panels:
    • text: mode: markdown content: "Link to Main Dashboard"

@jaceksan you need to pass variables down - context defined through --config is not accessible from everywhere and only on dashboard level. If you need to use it in named component then your yaml will need to look like this:

- name: 'dashboard'
  dashboard:
    rows:
      - notice-documentation:
          elastic-host: '{elastic-host}'

- name: notice-documentation
  rows:
    - row:
        title: Documentation
        panels:
          - text:
              mode: markdown
              content: "Link to [Main Dashboard](https://{elastic-host}/xxxxx)"
