Hi All,

How do you customize the table width of results of custom search from a drilldown? I am not able to find any documentation on this.

Correct - this drilldown will run Splunk's Search app over which you have little control, however, if you drilldown to your own dashboard, you have much more control on the presentation.

I don't follow how the drilldown is related, but you can format the table column widths using this css in your dashboards

  <row depends="$AlwaysHideCSS$">
    <panel>
      <html>
        <style>
#table_id th[data-sort-key=Name] {
    width: 20% !important;
}
        </style>
      </html>
    </panel>
  </row>

and your table is defined with the id

<table id="table_id">...

Hi @bowesmana ,
This works when I use table in the dashboard. However for custom search from drilldown, the structure is a below:
<drilldown>
<link target="_blank">search?xxxxxxxxxxxxx(custom search)|table field_1 field_2 ;earliest=$time_selection_earliest$&latest=$time_selection_latest$</link>
</drilldown>

I cannot add the table id as "id" is an invalid attribute for both drilldown and link tags.

As @ITWhisperer says, if this drilldown is taking you to a search in a new Splunk window, then you have no control over the format 🙁
