Hi @rberna
Sorry I missed your last message, seeing it only now.
About the “App” dashboard: I gave this as an example of custom dashboard that you could add, but you need to create it in Grafana first, did you do that? The “name” field in Kiali yaml must equal the name of a dashboard within Grafana.
About other provided dashboards such as Istio Mesh: today it’s not configured in Kiali but we could add links to them indeed. Example:
- name: Istio Mesh Dashboard
variables:
namespace: ignored
service: ignored
workload: ignored
app: ignored
However, these dashboards are not per service, like the other ones, so the use case is a little bit different and links from within Kiali were not intended for that per design (that’s why there are those variables / ignored in yaml above). I’ll start a discussion with kiali team to see if we could make that more good-looking.
