Template variables let you parameterize dashboard queries so viewers can switch clusters, namespaces, services, or hosts from the top bar.

• SQL Panels: Use $variable_name or ${variable_name} inside WHERE clauses.
• Metric Expressions: Use label="$variable_name" or regex matchers label=~"$variable_name".

When a variable is set to All (__all__), Owlpane automatically expands regex matchers to .+ so multi-series charts render all matching dimensions.
