Dashboards & Visualizations

Change color of Single Value Visualization based on search result (without script)?

Hello, is it possible to change the color of the Single Value Visualization based on a time value of the search result.

 

I get a timestamp as a search result and would like to make the text of the visualization red if the timestamp is from more than 3 days ago.

Thanks for your help!

Here's an example dashboard that changes the colour to red if it's >3 days old

Example just creates a random 'age' and it will either be red or green.

Note - it uses 'range' field to determine colour.

<dashboard>
  <label>tst2</label>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <single>
        <title>Time Age</title>
        <search>
          <query>| makeresults
          | eval timestamp=now() - (random() % 7) * 86400
          | eval range=if(timestamp &lt; relative_time(now(), "-3d"), "severe", "low")
          | eval timestamp=strftime(timestamp, "%F %T")
          | table timestamp range</query>
          <earliest>$earliest$</earliest>
          <latest>$latest$</latest>
        </search>
        <option name="drilldown">none</option>
        <option name="field">timestamp</option>
        <option name="height">60</option>
        <option name="refresh.display">progressbar</option>
      </single>
    </panel>
  </row>
</dashboard>
