How to create a button for dashboard that exports CSV of specific panel

anasbk — Mon, 23 Sep 2019 15:41:55 GMT

Hi,
I want to create a button that exports the result of a specific panel in csv format.
I created the button using the tag as the image shown below.

I tried to inspect the javascript code of export button provided by Splunk but it seems complicated
I'm sure there is a better way to do that.

Thanks in advance !

I tried to inspect the javascript export button provided by Splunk and found the code that creates the ExportResultDialog in path /opt/splunk/share/splunk/search_mrsparkle/exposed/js/views/dashboard/element/Footer.js

this object is responsible for showing the export Modal and initializing the object.

I created this javascript code but it seems it has a lot of dependencies and js errors

require([
     'splunkjs/mvc',
     'views/shared/jobstatus/buttons/ExportResultsDialog'

 ], function(mvc , ExportResultsDialog) {



    var btn = $('.toto')
    _export = function () {
      console.log(this)

         /* var sid = this.manager.getSid();
          console.log(sid)
          */
          //this.searchJobModel.set("id", sid);
        var exportDialog = new ExportResultsDialog({
            model: {
                //searchJob: this.searchJobModel,
                //application: this.model.application,
                //report: this.model.report
            },
            usePanelType: true,
            onHiddenRemove: true
        });

        exportDialog.render().appendTo($("body"));
        exportDialog.show();

     }

     btn.click( function () {_export()})



 });

You can also just click the little download icon in the popup as you mouse over the panel. It is shown in your screen shot. Next to the search magnifier icon. Bottom right.
