adhoc: Key/value filters that are automatically added to all metric queries for a data source (Prometheus, Loki, InfluxDB, and Elasticsearch only).

constant: Define a hidden constant.

datasource: Quickly change the data source for an entire dashboard.

interval: Interval variables represent time spans.

textbox: Display a free text input field with an optional default value.
