Creating a dashboard with text inputs and drop-down forms in Splunk 6.2.4, why am I getting error "Duplicate labels causing conflict"?

[edroche3rd]

Good evening everyone!

I am trying to create a keystore dashboard with a handful of text inputs and a handfulof drop-down boxes. I am running version 6.2.4 Enterprise. I am getting "Duplicate labels causing conflict" error on the dashboard panel and under the field editor. I have tried changing every setting for the field to something different and that didn't work. I have attached an image file with screen prints with my settings and xml code.

Any thoughts? I have read the 2 below posts but no luck.

Hi edroche3rd,

I had the same problem and solved by adding a dedup to the population search. Adapted to your drop down try something like this:

| inputlookup belts.csv | dedup level | table level

Hope this helps ...

cheers, MuS

Would you be able to post your alertreport lookup file?
