Hi everyone.
using side view utils I am trying to pass one (or more) token from a dropdown into a search for parameterize it. This works. But since I want to add some kind of drilldown/link to that additionally I am in trouble. I would like to build a href that takes the $search$ token that already has the current $token$ replaced.
I forgot: This will lead in a linked value (a certain result of the main search) that will open a search with a query that will end exactly where the token within the $search$-token starts and should be replaced.

I guess there are two issues here.
I made that changes to the view and its working fine (I have removed macro part of the query).

Flashtimeline is basically the name of the Splunks default search screen (flashtimeline.xml). So for href property, you have to use the actual view name (and then pass query string after '?'). The word 'search' is a command which executes the passed query.
works like charm. thank you!
one question left for me: what is actually the difference between 'search' and 'flashtimeline'?
