Splunk Dashboard studio - hide and show table based on Drop down value

Pranita_P — Thu, 03 Jul 2025 14:51:00 GMT

I have 1 drop down having 5 values(value 1 ,value 2,value 3,value 4,value 5) in it.
i have assigned a token to this drop down

For (value 1 ,value 2,value 3,value 4)
i have a table(table 1) below drop down where the results change as per values of the drop down selected.
It uses 1 query underneath to get details

what i want is to have another another table(table 2) which should display in place of table 1 [hide table 1 and display 2 instead ] when value 5 is selected from drop down. This needs to use different query

How to achieve this ?

Hi @Pranita_P

For each table click on the Visualisation dropdown on the right and select the "When data is unavailable, hide element" checkbox. This means that the table will not show when there are no results.

Now you need to make it return no results when value5 is/isnt selected depending on your dropdown. You can do this with a where statement on each table (it might not be the most efficient to use a where statement here but not sure how else you could achieve it).

You would add something like:

| where "$yourDropdownToken$"="value 5"

Obviously you can change = to != as required.
