Hi, I am new to Kibana and have been playing with it for a while creating visualizations and dashboards. However I am trying to understand if Kibana can be leveraged for the following usecase, In a dashboard page if i have multiple visualization components and if i apply a filter on one of the components, it applies to the entire dashboard page. can this filter be applied to only a selective set of visualizations ? Thanks in advance! Regards, Haresh Kumar ---

No you cannot do currently this. ---

However, it is possible to combine visualizations associated with different saved searches on a single dashboards, so it is possible to statically apply different filters to different visualizations on the same dashboard. ---
