fix(dynamic-group-by): scope chart refreshes to affected charts only #36955

LevisNgigi · 2026-01-07T18:26:14Z

SUMMARY

This change prevents request storms caused by Dynamic Group By chart customizations by aligning chart refresh behavior with the existing native filters pattern.
Previously, applying or saving chart customizations triggered a forced re-query of all charts on the dashboard, regardless of whether they were affected. This caused unnecessary request fan-out and excessive /api/v1/chart/data traffic on dashboards with many charts.

BEFORE:

AFTER;

TESTING INSTRUCTIONS

1)Open a dashboard with multiple charts (ideally 10+).
2)Configure Dynamic Group By / Chart Customization for one or more charts.
3)Open the browser DevTools → Network tab (filter by /api/v1/chart/data).
4)Apply the chart customization.

Verify:

1)Only charts affected by the customization issue /api/v1/chart/data requests.
2)Unaffected charts do not re-query.
3)Each affected chart triggers only one request per apply action.
4)No repeated or cascading requests are observed.

Nitpicks 🔍

🔒 No security issues identified
⚡ Recommended areas for review Possible Bug The code assumes `getRelatedChartsForChartCustomization` always returns an array of valid chart IDs and directly spreads its result into `affectedChartIds`. If the helper returns `null`, `undefined`, a non-array, or values that are not numeric IDs, this will cause incorrect entries or runtime errors. Add defensive checks and normalize values to numbers before using them to build the affected list. Possible Bug The code calls `getRelatedChartsForChartCustomization(...)` and pushes its result into `affectedChartIds` without validating the return value or element types. If the utility returns undefined, non-array, or non-numeric identifiers, `dispatch(triggerQuery(true, chartId))` may be called with invalid arguments. Also ensure this behavior is correct for customizations that are `removed` (should they still trigger queries?). Potential Dispatch Storm Even after narrowing down to related charts, the code dispatches a `triggerQuery` for every affected chart in a tight loop. For dashboards with many affected charts this can still cause many simultaneous requests. Consider filtering to existing slices, batching, or otherwise limiting concurrency.

    [...allKeys].forEach(filterKey => {
+      // Skip chart customization filters - they are handled separately by saveChartCustomization
+      // which triggers queries only for affected charts
+      if (filterKey.startsWith('chart_customization_')) {


I think this is pretty fragile. Any better check? Maybe centralizing it?
