[Maps] _id values are not displayed inside tooltip

[thomasneirynck]

_id values of a document are blank inside a tooltip. It might be useful to include, perhaps even with hyperlink to doc-view in discover.

Users often want to go from a point on a map (either representing 1 document or multiple documents) to an actual list of documents. There is a gap in the use case where I can filter results on a dashboard using the maps visualizations, but I can't easily get to the original documents using maps. A quick solution to this gap would be to allow the map to link to Discover with filters carried over based on the geo query.

@Jaraxal Could embedding a saved search on that dashboard help with this use-case?

[Jaraxal]

A saved search would work for pre-configured queries. If the user is dynamically manipulating the map to "filter" results, then a dynamically created query filter might make more sense.

then a dynamically created query filter

The drawing tools might help here (?). Users can draw a polygon or envelope around the area they want to filter. That filter will be applied to all results on the dashboard, including a saved search.

No, that doesn’t help this specific problem. The user needs/wants to see the original “raw doc”. The data table visualizations on the dashboard are not a substitute for the raw doc view available in discover. Ideally the map visualizations should let you add a custom url based on the current dashboard filters. I’m thinking something similar to what the ML app allows for linking anomalies to other views.
