Dashboard Filters (Showing Description) but selecting the id value for use query parameters

Hi

Is there a way to have a Single or multiple filter in a Dashboard that shows titles/names but on selection passes in the identifier as query parameter filters. The cost management dashboard shipped by Databricks seems to do this for the workspace selector, but I cant find anything in the documentation .

The workspace selector uses a single value with the id prefixed by : and uses one of the two formats

1) WorkspaceName (id:xxxx)

2) id:xxxx - where no workspace name is found

This seems to work magically, but I cant find any reference in documentation
