I have a variable $var$, and want to display it a search result..

Whe I make
eval varSearch="test" | table varSearch

There are "no events found" how can I do that ?

Same problem when having a variable from upstream $var$ how can I use common eval function on that, and display it ?

In fact to add a row without results, we need a workaround by using a count, and hiding the field as :
| stats count | fields - count | eval

Does this is also supposed to work with a big xml $foo$ value ? I have a 1.3MB xml, I see it it Runtime debug, but I'm not pass it to the results, is it because of the quotes ?

I've tried with $foo$ and $foo.rawValue$...
