Hello,

I try to send to my dashboard different filters using windows.postmessage but I do not understand how to format my request
Is there anyone who already use this plugin?

thank you in advance

@Mehdi_Chilla I don't have any experience using this plugin, but from looking at the README.md in that github repo, it looks like you might be able to do so using:

myIframe.contentWindow.postMessage('searchRequest###' + this.iframeFinalUrl, '*'); this.iframeFinalUrl is your kibana URI containing the complete dashboard data such as: http://{KIBANA-HOST}/app/kibana#/dashboard/{OPTIONAL-DASHBOARD-NAME}?embed&_g={GLOBAL-STATE-DATA}&_a={APP-STATE-DATA}

You might have better success posting in the GitHub issues for this repo.
