Global filter in the dashboard

[Subendhiran]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I often find myself needing to apply filters across multiple widgets or datasets in the dashboard to analyze data more effectively. Without a global filter, I have to manually apply filters to each widget individually, which becomes time consuming and inefficient. This lack of a global filter also makes it difficult to maintain consistent views across multiple data points, especially when trying to compare different sets of information in a unified way.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to see a global filter option implemented in the dashboard. This would allow users to apply a single filter to multiple widgets or datasets at once. It would streamline data analysis by ensuring that all visualizations reflect the same filtered view, improving consistency and saving time. Ideally, the global filter could be customized based on the user's needs, allowing for various filter types (e.g., time ranges, categories, etc.) to be applied universally across the dashboard.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Currently, the only alternative is to manually apply filters to each widget, which is inefficient and leads to inconsistent filtering across different parts of the dashboard. Another alternative could be creating individual filters for each widget, but that doesn’t address the need for a unified, global view of the data.

Additional context
A global filter would significantly improve the user experience by allowing a more cohesive and efficient way to analyze data. It could be particularly helpful in situations where users need to compare different metrics or datasets that should be filtered in the same way. Some dashboards in other tools already have a similar feature, and it helps maintain focus and reduce the time spent applying multiple filters.
