Help with formatting a dashboard?

ajaynaralikar — Thu, 21 Sep 2017 08:02:17 GMT

I have prepared dashboard and set range on count.
But my concern is I have two different range on count for CUSTOMEREVENTS(field from mbExecutingGroupName).
PFB Current view of dashboard,
mbExecutingGroupName count

CUSTOMEREVENTS 102

CUSTOMEREVENTS 72

CUSTOMEREVENTS 66

CUSTOMEREVENTS 56

BEM_FRAMEWORK 48

CUSTOMEREVENTS 46

VPG 40

CUSTOMEREVENTS 39

CUSTOMEREVENTS 38

CUSTOMEREVENTS 36

CUSTOMEREVENTS 35

ADAPTERSVC 24
In short I have set range on count column on the basis of mbExecutingGroupName column.
Is it possible?

Splunk Version -6.5.0

Hi ajaynaralikar,
did you already seen the Splunk 6.x Dashboard Examples App?
there's an example (Table Formats) that could guide you to the solution.

Hi Giuseppe,

I don't know how to Dashboard Examples App. Could please assist?
Also I have checked Dashboard tutorials. But there is no any example for my requirement.
I have below requirement,
Two columns are there and I want set number range on second column on the basis of first column values.
It mean I want to set different ranges for different values of 1st column.

Hi ajaynaralikar,
take this url https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/1603/
download this app and install it, you don't need to restart Splunk.
There are many interesting examples , Table Formats should solve your need.
Bye.

I tried but I didn't get the proper solution So could provide solution on it,
My query is that I have to set different range values for count for different values.

@ajaynaralikar, If you have got Splunk Dashboard Examples app from Splunkbase please refer to Table Formats examples. From Splunk Enterprise 6.5 onward Table coloring based on Range Values can be performed directly through UI Panel > Edit and formatting the specific table column.

Following is the Simple XML table formatting option with various colors (hex code) as per the threshold values:

    <format type="color" field="count">
      <colorPalette type="list">[#65A637,#6DB7C6,#F7BC38,#F58F39,#D93F3C]</colorPalette>
      <scale type="threshold">0,30,70,100</scale>
    </format>
