Jump To Dashboard in Blox (navigation by dashboard name)
Hi,
Is it possible to configure JTD in Blox so it works with a name of the dashboard instead of ID? And then add another Blox in that dashboard to navigate back to where I came from?
Thanks,
Pawel

This isn't good practice as the names of the dashboard can be changed easily where as the dashboard id is static.
Do you have a specific reason why you would want to use the name?
You wouldn't want to add another dashboard to jump back as that would just open a new JTD so you'd have two JTDs on top of each other. if you just want to return back, click away from the Jumped to dashboard.

The reason is simple, less maintenance needed, if I deploy a set of dashboards to a client, I don't need to worry about modifying configuration and change IDs of JTD dashboards and if I have 200 clients to deploy this to is a bit of a hassle to go and modify every single JTD, suppose I have 10 JTD configs per dashboard set, then it gives you number of places you need to revisit.
Button. You jump to a dashboard X from Y within the same window, button to go back where you came from.
Thanks,
Pawel
