Let's refer to it as token $A$ for simplicity.<BR /> The search panel runs a query involving the map command, using it's own token, which I will refer to as $B$.</P> <PRE><CODE>index=kewl $A$ | head 1 | fields B |mvexpand B | map [ | dbquery db "select * from mytable where field=$B$" ] </CODE></PRE> <P>The dashboard panel does not run, awaiting for the B input forever.<BR /> Is there a way to isolate the context for the B token? or a nifty way to force the search to run without it?</P> <P>Thanks for your help</P> Fri, 05 Jun 2015 10:34:12 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Dashboard-tokens-interference-with-Map-tokens/m-p/143358#M8667 WwihgylWPiNbnXB 2015-06-05T10:34:12Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Dashboard-tokens-interference-with-Map-tokens/m-p/143359#M8668 <P>I believe you need to escape it with more <CODE>$</CODE> like this:</P> <PRE><CODE>index=kewl $A$ | head 1 | fields B |mvexpand B | map [ | dbquery db "select * from mytable where field=$$B$$" ] </CODE></PRE> Fri, 05 Jun 2015 13:42:14 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Dashboard-tokens-interference-with-Map-tokens/m-p/143359#M8668 woodcock 2015-06-05T13:42:14Z
