Filtering against a variable while using UQL parser for Infinity data source

Grafana Dashboards

  • What Grafana version and what operating system are you using?
    Using Grafana 9.4.7, windows 10

  • What are you trying to achieve?
    In the configuration of my Infinity datasource plugin, I am trying to use dashboard variables.
    Here is my JSON that I am getting when I call my JSON API.

{
    "values": {
        "M-20220630-XXXXXX YYYYYY": [
            "ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ",
            "124124123151243211"
        ],
        "D-20231011-XXXXXX YYYYYYY": [
            "90123182741203098123",
            "AONZCOAUZDAOZINAA",
            "21903ESMLDAXLQSKCA"
        ]
    }
}

What I am trying to do is getting one specific element from the “values” object using a variable (called “scoping” in my case) that I set via a drop down list.
But my variable contains only one part of the element, lets say I selected “D-20231011”.
So I need a “like” operator here that will allow me to get the object “D-20231011-XXXXXX YYYYYYY”, then all its content.

"90123182741203098123",
"AONZCOAUZDAOZINAA",
"21903ESMLDAXLQSKCA"
  • How are you trying to achieve it?
    When I try the following with a hardcoded substring
parse-json
scope "values"
project kv()
jsonata "*[ $contains(key, 'D-20231011-CADRAGE V1') ][]"

it works fine and I get
“D-20231011-XXXXXX YYYYYYY”

But when I try with the variable, like so

parse-json
scope "values"
project kv()
jsonata "*[ $contains(key, ${scoping:text}) ]"

I simply get all the objects in the “values”, nothing gets filtered.

Can anyone please help me point to the right direction ?

Try enclosing variable into single quotes:

jsonata "*[ $contains(key, '${scoping:text}') ]"
