Filter dashboards faster with template variable available values

Datadog’s template variables help you quickly scope your dashboards to specific contexts using tags, so you can visualize data from only the hosts, containers, services, or any other tagged objects you care about.

We’re proud to announce new features for the template variable workflow that enable you to make highly dynamic, shareable dashboards more efficiently.
