[Dashboard] Landing on specific tabs from URL

[hughhhh]

I want to be able to land on specific dashboard tab, based upon the url params. For instance, give this url superset/dashboards/2?tab=3

The user should be able to land on this specific tab after entering this link in the browser.

Problems:

• What if there is multiple tabs in a dashboard? How would know which tab to set?

If you know javascript, try to run this script after necessary modification
`function selectTab(){

//collect your URL parameter
    var objParam = new URLSearchParams(window.location.search);
    var tabParam = objParam.get('tab');
    var tabName = "";
//tab name is the value showing on each tab. 
    if(!tabParam) return false;

    if(tabParam =="3"){
        tabName = "Overview";
    } else if(tabParam=="k"){
        tabName = "KPI";
    } else if (tabParam == "s"){
        tabName = "Sales";
    }

        $('ul.nav.nav-tabs li a').children().find("input").each(function(){

            if($(this).val()==tabName){
                $(this).trigger("click");
             }

        });

}`
