I am trying to adjust the dashboard to show the query that is being generated by a list of drop downs. I think this will help the team better understand how to build queries in the future. If you have the html source that points towards this that would be greatly appreciated.
Splunk dashboard app has similar features and could refer that.

Very basic dashboard could be done as below
<form>
<label>Options</label>
<fieldset submitButton="false">
<input type="dropdown" token="sourcetype">
<label>Sourcetype</label>
<choice value="*">All</choice>
<default>*</default>
<initialValue>*</initialValue>
<fieldForLabel>sourcetype</fieldForLabel>
<fieldForValue>sourcetype</fieldForValue>
<search>
<query>index=_*|stats count by sourcetype</query>
<earliest>-4h@m</earliest>
<latest>now</latest>
</search>
</input>
</fieldset>
<row>
<panel>
<chart>
<search>
<query>index=_* sourcetype=$sourcetype$|stats count by index,sourcetype</query>
<earliest>-60m@m</earliest>
<latest>now</latest>
<done>
<set token="search_src">$job.search$</set>
</done>
</search>
<option name="charting.chart">column</option>
<option name="charting.chart.stackMode">stacked</option>
<option name="charting.drilldown">none</option>
<option name="charting.layout.splitSeries">0</option>
<option name="refresh.display">progressbar</option>
</chart>
</panel>
</row>
<row>
<panel>
<html>
<h2>Main Search</h2>
<hr></hr>
<p>$search_src$</p>
</html>
</panel>
</row>
</form>
Thank you that got me pointed in the right direction
