Add URL Parameters When Viewing A Dashboard

Is it possible to have a dashboard dynamically filter reports when opened through an external link?

This can be achieved by using a Flow Run Part in the Dashboard to filter the report by a page variable. The attached sample project includes a Dashboard that uses a Flow Run Part to filter an example Report showing all accounts within the environment. Decisions will check the URL for an emailAddress variable using the Get Page Variable step each time the page loads. If the page variable exists, the report will filter automatically by that value, and set it as the default form input.

You can verify this by appending &emailAddress=example@email.com to the end of the URL.
