Maintaining filter state across panels in Grafana dashboard

Monitoring and Observability Grafana
#1

I have a metric (request count) that I’d like to group by 3 different dimensions (user, data ID, and node ID). I made 3 panels in the dashboard for each.
When I click on one particular user, I’d like to filter the other panels to select only that user.
If I select a node on the node panel, I’d like the filters to include both the user selection and node selection.

Is this possible? I know there are data links, but not sure how to maintain the current state of the variables when redirecting to add the new filter.

what does this dashboard look like?

#3

so you have 3 dimensions as tables? or variables?

Currently they are all variables at the top for filtering, but there is a panel for each (a line graph) which is used to group by that dimension.

If I click on a user in the bottom panel, I’d like it to update the variable at the top. Then if I click on a node in the top panel, I’d like it to update the variable for node at the top, while not making the variable for user revert back to the default
