timerange for the history command

paulathome — Sat, 19 Oct 2013 01:32:51 GMT

I've noticed that running the "| history" command will return different results based on the setting of the timerangepicker. So my question is how can I define the earliest and latest values within the search bar, or in a dashboard panel's query?

| history earliest=-24h                 does not work
earliest=-24h | history                 does not work

and I'm fairly confident that anything downstream from the history command won't be able to influence how many results were delivered initially by the history command.

I was using this in a dashboard panel to nicely display the last few searches that a user performed and I was able to set the earliest and latest in the Search module. Couple that with a Pager, Table, HTML and a redirector module I was all set.

Thanks Sideview Utils,

You would not be able to add earliest or latest value in a query (within search bar or a dashboard query) involving '|history'. The only option is the use timerangepicker (from searchbar) or from param "earliest" or latest within dashboard xml.
