In my splunk dashboard, I want to call a webpage and display the output of the webpage in my dashboard.
When I go to the link, it displays a long text and I want to see the text in the dashboard. how can I accomplish this ?

@balash1979 ,

Try using iframe

   <dashboard>
       <label>URLs in Iframe</label>
       <row>
         <html>

           <body>
             <iframe src="URL of your webpage" width="100%" height="300">
             </iframe>
           </body>
         </html>
       </row>
     </dashboard>

From the browser, i am our hitting api. If the put the same url in splunk under the iframe src link, i get "refused to connect". Do i have to do anything special in the code above ?

Most probably the URL you are trying to connect does not accept a connection from iFrame

If it's owned by you, then probably you can adjust the settings and if not, you might need to index the data from API and visualize it

It is owned by IT in my company. is indexing the data from API can be done in splunk code ?
