    <description>&lt;P&gt;Have a look at the &lt;CODE&gt;inputlookup&lt;/CODE&gt; command, which lets you read CSV formatted data into Splunk and have it treated like regular search results. Using &lt;CODE&gt;inputlookup&lt;/CODE&gt; and a table in your dashboard should give you what you want. As for how to create dropdowns where you load data like that, there are plenty of good examples on this in the &lt;A href="http://splunk-base.splunk.com/apps/64805/splunk-dashboard-examples"&gt;Dashboard examples&lt;/A&gt; app.&lt;/P&gt;

      <title>Drop down in dashboard</title>
      <link>https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Drop-down-in-dashboard/m-p/86191#M4671</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;I need to create a dashboard view of the below requirement:&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;I've a txt file which has data like:&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;

&lt;P&gt;Row1: Title: Title1, Name: Name1, Designation: Des1, Place: Place1&lt;BR /&gt;
Row2: Title: Title2, Name: Name2, Designation: Des2, place: Place2&lt;BR /&gt;
Row3: Title: Title3, Name: Name3, Designation: Desc3, Place: Place3 and so on...&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;I need to create this dashboard view such that I've a drop down where in when I select name1, then all the details i.e. Title, Designation, Place of name1 is displayed and same goes with name2 and so on.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;

&lt;P&gt;Is this possible using a txt file as input to the splunk? If so, how do I get started? I'm clueless. &lt;/P&gt;</description>
