Description

The dashboard variable documentation walks through creating and managing custom dashboard variables, but it doesn't explain that to get them to appear and be selectable at the top of a dashboard, you have to use the variable in a cell query. Once used in a cell, the variable dropdown will appear in the dashboard.
