What path do I use to add new files, images, and fonts to load on a dashboard?

Hi ,

I have custom fonts for my dashboard and added the same in my app in the below path.

/opt/splunk/etc/apps/MY_APP/static/fonts/BTFont_Rg.ttf

but when I run the dashboard, it is not able to load the fonts and throwing a 404 errror when looked in Firebug. Can u please suggest the appropriate path to put the fonts folder?

//error i am seeing in Firebug

NetworkError: 404 Not Found - http://localhost:8080/en-GB/static/@255606/app/fonts/BTFont_Rg.ttf

I struggled with the same thing last month.

Here is how it works.

/static/app/<your_app>/font/BTFont_Rg.tff

You can find all static items for an app under this path.

/static/app/<your_app>

For an image tag it would like like this <img src="/static/app/simple_xml_examples/images/sum_search1.png"></img>
