Tour Creation App for Splunk -- How to work with a default view that has many variables?

For our app: the default view isn't:

tc_view_main

It's actually more like this:

tc_view_main?form.start=-30d&form.span=1d&form.indicator_type=&form.rating=&form.confidence=&form.state=New&form.indicator=&form.victim=*&earliest=0&latest=

By default, the Splunk Tour App appends to tc_view_main as such:

tc_view_main?tour=welcome_to_threatconnect_for_splunk

But then our app appends the above remainder for the view of that landing dashboard. I've tried adding the ?tour=welcome_to_threatconnect_for_splunk to the end, used an & instead of a ? but still no dice. I'll try via the conf file but I was hoping to use the App for it as it takes the guesswork out of the DOM elements. My guess is that our app loads the default view and then a page refresh appends and we loose the tour capability.

So sorry for the late reply here! Just now seeing this. So, I think this will only work in splunk 6.6 and above. There was a bug in Splunk 5.x that didn't allow for tours to be run properly on dashboards... only views. is tc_view_main setup as a dashboard?

Also, are you still seeing the issue?

I created a VM of Centos7x64 and Splunk 6.5.5 and still not working. Just wondering if anyone had any insight to this as I see the pre-pended tour token but the tour doesn't start.
