Hello, I have 2 panels (saved search from discover) in 2 separate dashboards.  
I created a panel to navigate between the 2 dashboards, both panels have a column that holds mobile number but they are from 2 different datasources.  
My question is, if I select a specific number in the first dashboard (in control field or a filter) how do I pass the same number to the other dashboard?

Lets say the number i want to trace is : "0504984137" in the below rest logger dashboard ==\>

 ![Rest Logger](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/c/e/ce73d89f4e90299d0e16af9a3ed9aa123f9ad0a2.png)

I want the same number to be present either in the control field or as KQL language filter when i switch dashboards ==\>

 ![Call History](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/d/2/d22ca9caa97d8b7c9e906555f3392d2e1e04bcab.png)

I tried to pass it in KQL query but it didnt work, navigation panel code ==\>

```auto
[Rest Logger Dashboard](#/dashboard/76d0a1c0-eb66-11ee-a477-45084b22e175?_g=(query:(language:kuery,query:'served_nmbr:"{{key}}"'))) | [Call History Dashboard](#/dashboard/82e9e750-c983-11ee-ac74-e1d6f1c1efa9?_g=(query:(language:kuery,query:'served_nmbr:"{{param1.keyword}}"')))

```

NOTE : I'm working with 2 different dataviews

Hi @SamehSaeed. Passing filter context is not supported in Markdown links. I think you'll want to consider using the [Links panel](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/8.13/dashboard-links.html) instead.
