Dashboard
/api/dashboard endpoints.
DELETE /api/dashboard/:dashboard-id/public_link
Delete the publicly-accessible link to this Dashboard.
PARAMS:
dashboard-id
value must be an integer greater than zero.
DELETE /api/dashboard/:id
Hard delete a Dashboard. To soft delete, use PUT /api/dashboard/:id
This will remove also any questions/models/segments/metrics that use this database.
PARAMS:
id
value must be an integer greater than zero.
GET /api/dashboard/
This endpoint is currently unused by the Metabase frontend and may be out of date with the rest of the application. It only exists for backwards compatibility and may be removed in the future.
Get Dashboards
. With filter option f
(default all
), restrict results as follows:
all
- Return all Dashboards.mine
- Return Dashboards created by the current user.archived
- Return Dashboards that have been archived. (By default, these are excluded.).
PARAMS:
f
nullable enum of all, mine, archived.
GET /api/dashboard/:dashboard-id/dashcard/:dashcard-id/execute
Fetches the values for filling in execution parameters. Pass PK parameters and values to select.
PARAMS:
-
dashboard-id
value must be an integer greater than zero. -
dashcard-id
value must be an integer greater than zero. -
parameters
value must be a valid JSON string.
GET /api/dashboard/:id
Get Dashboard with ID.
PARAMS:
-
id
value must be an integer greater than zero. -
dashboard-load-id
GET /api/dashboard/:id/params/:param-key/search/:query
Fetch possible values of the parameter whose ID is :param-key
that contain :query
. Optionally restrict
these values by passing query parameters like other-parameter=value
e.g.
;; fetch values for Dashboard 1 parameter 'abc' that contain 'Cam' and are possible when parameter 'def' is set
;; to 100
GET /api/dashboard/1/params/abc/search/Cam?def=100
Currently limited to first 1000 results.
PARAMS:
-
id
value must be an integer greater than zero. -
param-key
-
query
value must be a non-blank string. -
constraint-param-key->value
GET /api/dashboard/:id/params/:param-key/values
Fetch possible values of the parameter whose ID is :param-key
. If the values come directly from a query, optionally
restrict these values by passing query parameters like other-parameter=value
e.g.
;; fetch values for Dashboard 1 parameter 'abc' that are possible when parameter 'def' is set to 100
GET /api/dashboard/1/params/abc/values?def=100.
PARAMS:
-
id
value must be an integer greater than zero. -
param-key
-
constraint-param-key->value
GET /api/dashboard/:id/query_metadata
Get all of the required query metadata for the cards on dashboard.

-
id
value must be an integer greater than zero. -
dashboard-load-id
GET /api/dashboard/:id/related
Return related entities.

value must be an integer greater than zero.
GET /api/dashboard/:id/revisions
Fetch Revisions
for Dashboard with ID.
PARAMS:
id

GET /api/dashboard/embeddable
Fetch a list of Dashboards where enable_embedding
is true
. The dashboards can be embedded using the embedding
endpoints and a signed JWT.
GET /api/dashboard/params/valid-filter-fields
Utility endpoint for powering Dashboard UI. Given some set of filtered
Field IDs (presumably Fields used in
parameters) and a set of filtering
Field IDs that will be used to restrict values of filtered
Fields, for each
filtered
Field ID return the subset of filtering
Field IDs that would actually be used in a chain filter query
with these Fields.
e.g. in a chain filter query like
GET /api/dashboard/10/params/PARAM_1/values?PARAM_2=100
Assume PARAM_1
maps to Field 1 and PARAM_2
maps to Fields 2 and 3. The underlying MBQL query may or may not
filter against Fields 2 and 3, depending on whether an FK relationship that lets us create a join against Field 1
can be found. You can use this endpoint to determine which of those Fields is actually used:
GET /api/dashboard/params/valid-filter-fields?filtered=1&filtering=2&filtering=3 ;; -> {1 [2 3]}
Results are returned as a map of
filtered
Field ID -> subset of filtering
Field IDs that would be used in chain filter query.

-
filtered
vector of value must be an integer greater than zero. -
filtering
nullable vector of value must be an integer greater than zero.
