Links to Workload Balancer in Dashboards look different - how do I get rid of the clutter?

[mdeancherry]

Hi All,

Was there a change to how to pull in Workload Balancer views into dashboards or am I just doing something wrong? Previously, I would go to the WLB, set up any filters I wanted (and share them), and then hit the "shareable link" icon to get a link that I could paste into a dashboard. The dashboard displayed a pared down version of the WLB, without an icon for filters, no nav links across the top, etc. (see Fig 1 "normal") but now when I do the same thing I get a lot of clutter (see Fig 2 "current"). Am I doing something wrong or was there a process change? 

Thank you in advance.

I can't speak to what you're doing but mine is still acting like Fig 1. I click on the little chain icon and it gives me a super long link to paste. When I put this into a classic dashboard as an external page url link, it doesn't give me any headers.

So, I figured it out. I might be browser-specific (Firefox) but when I click the "shareable link" chain icon, it was just copying the regular Workload Balancer link (not pared down, not with a particular filter locked in). To get the "normal" view for a dashboard, I had to right click on that link and chose "open link", let that page load (which was the pared-down view), and then go to the address bar and copy the URL, then paste that into the dashboard.

I went in to firefox, and my firefox is acting normally (copies the shareable link). I'm glad you were able to find a workaround that works for you though.
