As @jamiesmith pointed out we seem to be missing monitor names in the filter bar dropdown (see SS below).
This is a bug and a regression strictly speaking, however I don't believe it ever made sense to show a list of names there. It would only correspond to the name column of the larger list below. The same goes for ID and URL. Filtering by items with a cardinality of 1 doesn't make a lot of sense.
The real utility of these items in the filter bar is that using their search boxes is easier than typing/remembering
monitor.name:"my name"
. To that end I propose we stop showing values in the dropdown for everything butport
andtype
which are actually enumerable and have many monitors to a single value, and just use the others for their search boxes.I'd propose that we show the search boxes for these fields, and let users input arbitrary strings there to add to the query. This probably dovetails with the Kuery bar work @jasonrhodes is working on. I'd very much appreciate your opinion here @jasonrhodes given that.
@katrin-freihofner wdyt?
