Getting started with query parameters

Query parameters are required for content inside a dashboard panel to receive values used to filter data from a filter control. They are also required when receiving values from content in other dashboard panels that are broadcasting values associated with content linking. The way in which query parameters are defined is different depending on the type of content you are placing inside your dashboard panels:

If	Then
You are defining parameters in the Analyzer...	See Add query parameters to Analyzer reports.
You are defining parameters for a chart or data table...	Use the Query Editor to define your parameterized query. See Linking Charts and Data Tables and Linking Columns in a Data Table to Content in other Dashboard Panels.
