Can I disable clicking on items in table view when sharing search results?

caffein — Fri, 11 May 2012 01:34:32 GMT

When sharing a search result I would like to disable clicking on the individual table cells. I would still like to be able to sort by column by clicking on the column header though. This comes up a lot when i share results that took a long time to run and someone accidentally clicks on a cell which causes splunk tries to run a huge query all over again.

I saw this post:
http://splunk-base.splunk.com/answers/7646/how-to-disable-results-table-row-clicking
But I would specifically like to disable drilldown when sharing saved results, not when creating a view or dashboard.

You need to setup a separate view for this, because the default view is indeed configured to make table results clickable and has no way of determining whether the user is viewing results that you shared or just viewing results as part of "normal usage".

So there's no way to just save some results, send a link to someone and have cell clicking/drilldown disabled?

Can it be disabled for the default, global search view using the web UI? We're trying to use Splunk here but run in to this problem all the time. It'd be better if the page required you to hold a modifier to drill down.

+1 on the above two issues. It's been 2 years since, has anything changed?
