remove app from dropdown list

karche — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 00:11:47 GMT

I try to modify the flashtimeline to remove the app dropdown list on the right hand side upper corner or just leave Getting Started, Home and Search apps in there. I cannot find which module and what parameter i should use.

Thanks in advance.

Are you trying to remove the actual App link from the view or just not show vertain apps in that App menu?

The Advanced XML Module is "Splunk.Module.AccountBar"

You can remove the app dropdown with something like :

<module name="AccountBar" layoutPanel="appHeader">
<param name="mode">lite</param>
</module>

Or , if you want to keep the dropdown, 2 ways come to mind for limiting the apps displayed in the dropdown :

Manager -> Apps : edit the app's properties to make it not visible
Via Role based permissions , limit the visibility(read/write permissions on the app) to certain roles only
