I am trying to use the visual builder to filter a specific dashboard I tried to change the panel URL as

../app/kibana#/dashboard/da9669f0-51f8-11e8-8a7f-17adcb8f2388?\_a=(query:(query\_string:(analyze\_wildcard:!t,query:'processor:"{{key}}"')))

however that seems to do nothing!

I suspect you're running into this bug: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/31060](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/31060)

You should be able to fix it by updating the query format. Change

```auto
(query:(query_string:(analyze_wildcard:!t,query:'processor:"{{key}}"')))

```

to

```auto
(query:(query:'processor:"{{key}}"', language: 'kuery'))

```

I will try that, thanks. Also is there a way to a dd a similar "link" to a field in a data-table? I can in a Discover page by changing the data type to URL however, it doesnt show up in a datatable.

Hmmm, as far as I know field formatters should still work in visualizations as well. Could you create a ticket for it on our [github repo](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new?template=Bug_report.md)?
