Use filter in the trending template based on Primary Key (PK) instead of Display Key (DK)

In trend templates we can specify what rows we want to trend by specifying a mask in the filter column of the template. That mask applies to the Display Key of the dynamic table.

How can use a mask that applies to Primary Key (PK) instead?

That way I would not have to create an extra column that concatenates both values (CVI Display Key) as shown in the screenshot below.

Thanks in advance.

We currently do not support configuring trend templates with rules that match or filter a primary key value.

Hi Miguel,

Not really answering your question, but it's common practice to include a column that displays the full "Display Key" as it might otherwise be difficult to match an alarm to a specific row.

If the "Primary Key" represents a meaningful value, it should be part of the "Display Key" (also to make sure it's unique), so you could already use wildcards in your filter to match a specific PK.

Thanks, Joey, for your response. Indeed, creating a new column that concatenates the PK to form a new DK is what we did in the screenshot above. That works fine.
I still would like to know if it is possible to use a mask that applies to the Primary Key instead of the Display Key as it is the default behavior in the trend templates.
