Research direction
Start in packages/api/src/routers/external-api/v2/utils/dashboards.ts and trace convertToExternalTileChartConfig through both raw-SQL and builder paths. Then inspect the external schemas in packages/api/src/utils/zod.ts, packages/mcp/tools/dashboards/schemas.ts, and packages/mcp/prompts/dashboards/content.ts, along with the external-api tests. Done means Timeline tiles preserve their configuration through GET/PUT round trips without the conversion error.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Currently Timeline tiles are not supported in the external dashboards API (packages/api/src/routers/external-api/v2/utils/dashboards.ts). When a Timeline tile is read via GET, the converter logs an error and falls back to a Line tile config, losing the user's intent.
Follow-up from #2190 (Timeline schema PR). To fix when the Timeline renderer lands:
- Add a
DisplayType.Timelinebranch toconvertToExternalTileChartConfig(both the raw-SQL and builder paths) - Add a corresponding
timelinecase to the external schema inpackages/api/src/utils/zod.tsandpackages/mcp/tools/dashboards/schemas.ts/packages/mcp/prompts/dashboards/content.ts - Add round-trip tests for Timeline tiles in the external-api test suite
