Hi,

I want to connect the dashboard of kibana and devtools, specifically fetching the info from controls in the dashboard, and to use the selected value in the controls in the devtools is there any way to do this.

Regards.

</div>

open inspector for a specific panel (click on the ... menu in the panel, select inspect)  
in the inspector select `view: requests` from the top dropdown and then select `request` tab ...

now you can copy paste this request and use it in dev tools
