How to display tooltip on a panel without using javascript?

ATSplunker — Thu, 13 Oct 2022 20:40:11 GMT

I need to show a tooltip on a panel, to let users know that clicking on the value will take them to a drill down. Is there a way to achieve this without using Javascript?

This is the code for the panel from the source.

<panel> <title>Supported Platforms Count</title> <single> <title>This metric gives the count of platforms supported by Integration platform engineering team</title> <search> <query>| inputlookup Integrations_Platform_List.csv | stats count</query> <earliest>$global_time.earliest$</earliest> <latest>$global_time.latest$</latest> <sampleRatio>1</sampleRatio> </search> <option name="drilldown">all</option> <option name="height">200</option> <option name="rangeColors">["0x53a051","0x0877a6","0xf8be34","0xf1813f","0xdc4e41"]</option> <option name="refresh.display">progressbar</option> <option name="trellis.enabled">0</option> <option name="trellis.size">medium</option> <option name="trellis.splitBy">_aggregation</option> <drilldown> <link target="_blank">search?q=%7C%20inputlookup%20Integrations_Platform_List.csv%0A%7C%20stats%20count&earliest=$global_time.earliest$&latest=$global_time.latest$</link> </drilldown> </single> </panel>

Thanks,

This solution is using javascript. I don't have access to add the .js file in the SplunkApp path, hence looking for any option without using javascript.

Hi @ATSplunker,

sorry, I missed the javascript landscape.

in this case there isn't any solution to your problem.

Ciao.
