A Selector is a user-defined filter for quickly filtering metrics in Dashboard charts and meters.
- Multiple Selectors can be set for a Dashboard.
- Selectors can be further refined by adding a Dependency Group. which exclude values that are not required.
- Only charts and meters which include the Selector in the expression are filtered.

USING SELECTORS TO FILTERS CHARTS OR METERS
To filter a chart or meter using a Selector:
- Create a Selector. [See Creating a Selector]
- Add the Selector to an Expression. [See Adding a Selector to an Expression]
- Use the Selector to filter Dashboard tiles. [See Viewing Dashboard Tiles - Filtering Dashboard Tiles by Selectors]
Note: Changing the value of a Selector updates all charts that use the Selector.
