GitHub user mistercrunch added a comment to the discussion: Extra filters (to
the chart as query params)
It would be so great to have a simple, super intuitive URL "API" consistent on
both explore and dashboard that's so simple you can just remember it without
thinking, or document it in 5 lines of text.
like `?filter__{column_name}={value}` and for OR you'd just put it twice, like
`?filter__country=Canada&filter__country=Peru`. Sure it can't do all the
operators or the in-and-or-this-or-that-and-this. But just solving simple
filters would be nice.
`rison`, a standard to encode JSON-in-urls that we use internally in most
places is super neat too and pretty intuitive if we wanted a slightly more
complex/powerful implementation that supports JSON arrays or nested data
structures (though we want to avoid the super complex stuff).
Early versions of Explore / Dashboard were stateful in the URL, but when charts
got more complex, the amount of data started to exceed what a URL can support
(I think it's 2k to 8k on most web servers, and having larger ones help people
DDOS you...) so we moved away from that pattern.
I think there might still be undocumented url params. But it should probably be
re-designed and re-implemented, in a consistent way across explore/dashboard.
