Use a custom-variable in a custom-variable

[kkevvai]

Hi @stofi,

Regarding your question:

Also would this syntax be valid as well: key : {value1,value2, value…}?
This way I could create collections for server names and give them a name for easy selection

If this is still relevant, you may find the following helpful:

How can i use custom variables to chain

Hi subhdeep, I ran into a similar issue recently. Chaining doesn’t appear to be supported with custom variables, but I was able to use variable key-value pairs in combination with Regex (I’m using InfluxDB) to get something approximating the required functionality. In your case, I’d define custom variables as region1 : reg1-serv1|reg1-serv2, region2 : reg2-serv1|reg2-serv2, region3 : reg3-serv1|reg3-serv2 Notice the pipe | operators.

Good luck!
