=== Controls

|
|
|
|
The controls tool enables you to add interactive inputs
|
|
on a dashboard.
|
|
|
|
You can add two types of interactive inputs:
|
|
|
|
* *Options list* - Filters content based on one or more specified options. The dropdown menu is dynamically populated with the results of a terms aggregation. For example, use the options list on the sample flight dashboard when you want to filter the data by origin city and destination city.
|
|
|
|
* *Range slider* - Filters data within a specified range of numbers. The minimum and maximum values are dynamically populated with the results of a min and max aggregation. For example, use the range slider when you want to filter the sample flight dashboard by a specific average ticket price.

=== Markdown
|
|
|
|
The Markdown tool is a text entry field that accepts GitHub-flavored Markdown text. When you enter the text, the tool populates the results on the dashboard.
|
|
|
|
Markdown is helpful when you want to include important information, instructions, and images on your dashboard.
|
|
|
|
For information about GitHub-flavored Markdown text, click *Help*.
|
|
|
|
For example, when you enter:
|
|
|
|
[role="screenshot"]
|
|
image::images/markdown_example_1.png[]
|
|
|
|
The following instructions are displayed:
|

|
|

Or when you enter:
