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 for a lot of use cases if we could add instance-level properties to a dashboard widget as well. For example if we had a table which showed interfaces, it would be useful to be able to show instance-level properties of the interface such as the interface description or interface vlan.
Also being able to use the ##DSIDESCRIPTION## token within a table widget would be useful for the instance description, but we cannot do that either.

·1 year agojake_nahm Any update on this? I really can not emphasize more how much of a big deal this is and how we really need this. Waiting for this feature is starting to hurt as we have to look to other solutions to present this data. Can We get an update and have this priority raised? Thank you.

·1 year agoHi Brian,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We would be happy to meet, to hear more about your use case and challenges you're running into. This is a feature we are heavily considering, and is noted as a priority area. I am copying my co-worker Ian_Marge who is helping to drive this effort.

·1 year agoI'd like to see this implemented too. Can someone on the team just provide an update on this here? We really should be able to put any property on any table wherever we need it, I know it might not be so easy on the backend but getting instance level data displayed or exported in an easy to use way is something that should have been done a long time ago in my opinion

·1 year agoI definitely need this as well. Instance-level properties are a lot of what we would need to use for more granular dashboards, this would make them much more useful to us.
