How to have more than 49 panels in a dashboard?

kasu_praveen — Mon, 28 Sep 2020 14:55:39 GMT

Is there any limit to maximum number of rows allowed in layoutpanel?

I just tested with 50 rows, splunk says "found an invalid value for layoutPanel - 'panel_row50_col1'". What is wrong here? Is there any way I can increase maximum rows allowed in layoutpanel?

Here is my code snippet, which is throwing error. If I remove last module with layoutpanel "panel_row50_col1", then it is working fine.

<view autoCancelInterval="90" isVisible="true" objectMode="SimpleDashboard" onunloadCancelJobs="true" refresh="-1" template="dashboard.html">

More than 50 rows test

I don't see any direct way to increase this limit. I will investigate and will let you know if I find anything.

somesoni2: where did you verify that this is the maximum?

Why would you want more than 49 rows? A dashboard with that many rows (remembering that you can have multiple columns per row) would result in so many searches that it would likely take ages to load.

If you need that many for layout purposes, you could consider using the native SDKs to work directly in Javascript. You also have the option of Django, if you're using version 6.

Value is hard coded in the dashboard template.
However you can copy the dashboard template out of

$SPLUNK_HOME/share/splunk/search_mrsparkle/templates/view/dashboard.html

copy it to
$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/YOUR_APP_HERE/appserver/templates/custom_dashboard.html

down near the bottom you'll see:
% for rowNumber in range(1,51): , Change the value 🙂

Then in your view, take out

template="dashboard.html"
and put in this:
template="/YOUR_APP_HERE:/templates/custom_dashboard.html"
