UIv4 Dashboards Page - Table Widgets and instance-level properties

In the new UIv4 dashboards page, we are now able to add properties to a Table Widget as columns. However we can currently only add device-level properties to Table Widgets. It would be really useful...

Sure, would be happy to get on a call and go through some examples. Below are a few I can think of offhand. Including this additional information in the table widget would add helpful context for anybody using the dashboard.

  • Any widgets related to the VMWare VM datasources. These can include VM tags as instance-level properties, and would be nice to show those on the table so we can easily see what application/etc the VM belongs to
  • Any widgets related to Network Interfaces. The interfaces datasource has various instance-level properties which would be useful to show on a table widget

 

I also noticed that the ##DSIDESCRIPTION## token is now supported in the "Row Name" field of the table widgets. This is a great step, but would be even more useful if we could filter the dashboard rows using the instance description, similar to how we already can for the instance/resource/group.

I'm chiming in to second the point on Network Interfaces especially. I would love to have a table with the interface-level properties. Much of what I need out of LogicMonitor is at the instance level and I'm still not seeing much functionality added in this area.
Also would love to just be able to make a table with whatever resource and instance properties in it without needing to add a datapoint as part of the table. This would be for formatting data in a dashboard in a much more customized way than on the resource info tab in the resource tree
