Dashboards & Visualizations

Draw chart dynamically based on search results

Hi,

I am trying to gather a list of names and count each Name's success or fail, so I have a query like the following:

.... | stats count by Name, isSuccess

but I only want to the top 5 Names, in terms of count(i.e. regardless of isSuccess) and then graph each Name on a separate panel(e.g. a pie chart to see their ratio of isSuccess). Is this possible?

@dyuen, Following is a run anywhere dashboard based on Splunk's _internal index which gets top 5 components in first panel (using Tag Cloud visualization). In the second panel it displays the Pie chart of Successful Count over Total using Trellis.

Following is the Simple XML code.

<form>
  <label>Top 5 Names and their success</label>
  <fieldset submitButton="false"></fieldset>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <input type="time" token="tokTime" searchWhenChanged="true">
        <label></label>
        <default>
          <earliest>-1d@d</earliest>
          <latest>@d</latest>
        </default>
      </input>
      <viz type="simple_xml_examples.tagcloud">
        <title>Top Components</title>
        <search>

          <earliest>$tokTime.earliest$</earliest>
