Hi, in older version of kibana 7.x the post url for reporting was very long, but you could manipulate the string to filter de data, so you put the names of the hosts in an array and iterate trouhg it and use one dashboard for many hosts.

but now the post url is shorter, and it seems that you can use filters in the same dashboard.

Is there a way to do this in newer versions of kibana?

Hello, that was not an intended feature, it was more of a workaround for the issue. Now you can just use the full post url.
