Change Choice Text (not value) via Token from search in a checkbox

Hello,

i am trying to make life easier for my colleagues by providing filtering to error logs.

So i have different types of errors/warnings and want to display the number of the occurrences in the checkbox.

Something like:

<input type="checkbox" token="tok_dummy_6">
  <label>Erroneous Calls ($tok_sum_erroneous$)</label>
  <choice value="yes">Erroneous Calls ($tok_sum_erroneous$)</choice>
  <search>
    <query>
      index=<myIndex> Trace_ID = $tok_traceid$ error_type="Erroneous Call"
      | stats count as Errors
    </query>
    <done>
      <set token="tok_sum_erroneous">$result.Errors$</set>
    </done>

  </search>
</input>

the green part works like a charme, but i really do not like the label as it makes no sense if the checkbox itself is actually stating the same and just putting "yes" seems kinda childish. So i want to delete the label and just go with the text for the choice option.

Any ideas? I tried double $$ with no luck.

 

Kind regards,

Mike
