Configure Panels
Edit a panel
After adding a panel to a dashboard, you can open it at any time to update queries, change visualizations, add transformations, or adjust display settings.
Step 1 - Open the dashboard containing the panel you want to edit. If it is a read-only dashboard (such as an integration dashboard), click Make editable in the header first.
Step 2 - Hover over the panel and open its menu from the top-right corner.
Step 3 - Select Edit to open the Edit panel view: the panel preview on top, its queries below, and the visualization options on the right. Use Back to dashboard to return, Discard panel changes to throw away your edits, or Save dashboard to keep them.
Tip
Keyboard shortcut: hover over the panel and press E to open it directly in edit mode.
Move a panel
Step 1 - Open the dashboard you want to modify.
Step 2 - Click and hold the panel title.
Step 3 - Drag the panel to its new position and release.
Resize a panel
Step 1 - Open the dashboard containing the panel.
Step 2 - Click and drag the lower-right corner of the panel to adjust its dimensions.
Configure thresholds
A threshold is a value associated with a metric that visually changes how a panel is styled when the value is met or exceeded. Thresholds apply to Time-series, Stat, Gauge, Geomap, Table, and State timeline visualizations.
Threshold types
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Absolute | Triggered by a specific numeric value (e.g. 80) |
| Percentage | Triggered relative to the min or max value (e.g. 80%) |
Default thresholds applied by OpsPilot:
80= redBase= green (Base represents minus infinity - the default "good" state)- Mode = Absolute
Add a threshold
Step 1 - Edit the panel you want to add a threshold to.
Step 2 - In the options pane, locate the Thresholds section and click + Add threshold.
Step 3 - Select a color, enter the threshold value, and set the mode (Absolute or Percentage).
Info
For a Time-series panel, also set the Show thresholds option to control how the threshold line is displayed.
Delete a threshold
Step 1 - Open the panel in edit mode.
Step 2 - Click the trash icon next to the threshold you want to remove.
Info
Deleting a threshold removes it from all visualizations on that panel.
