How to set a condition match for a drop-down?

robertlynch2020 — Tue, 29 Sep 2020 12:42:35 GMT

I am looking to set a condition match for a drop-down, when a drop-down is selected the host_token is set [for the first time]. Then i want the condition match to pass and set the TPS_ON_ALL_PANELLS.

The issue is: do i set the condition match to a * or something else to pick up any value of when the token is set?

   <input type="dropdown" token="host_token" searchWhenChanged="true" rejects="$SHOW_HISTORICAL_ENVIRONMENTS$">
      <label>Data Source:</label>
      <search>
        <query>| metadata type=hosts index=mlc_live | fields host</query>
        <earliest>-1months</earliest>
        <latest>now</latest>
      </search>
      <default>-</default>    
      <change>

    <condition match="$host_token$ == &quot;*&quot;">
        <set token="TPS_ON_ALL_PANELLS">true</set>
      </condition>
      </change>

Is it not setting at all currently? Have you tried just the * character with out the escaped single quotes around it?

You'll likely want to do something like this:

...
<change>
 <condition value="*">
   <set token="TPS_ON_ALL_PANELS">true</set>
</condition>
</change>
...

In fact that does not work. It is like if the token has not been set it wont let it in.

What about <condition label="All">

Maybe

<change>
  <eval token="TPS_ON_ALL_PANELS">if(value="*",true,false)</eval>
</change>
