Loves-to-Learn Everything

Want to have a drop down filter which is filled dynamically .

 

Filter should have the following options :

1. Latest 5 Numbers

2. Latest 10 Numbers

3 . Latest 15 Numbers

These numbers should be populated by some time field .

there is a time field existing and last 5 numbers should be queried out according to time and according the dropdown should be grouped as last 5 numbers , last 10 numbers and last 15 numbers ..

Hi @pb2,

you could create a dropdown like this:

    <input type="dropdown" token="my_token">
      <label>Values</label>
      <choice value="| head 5">Latest 5 Numbers</choice>
      <choice value="| head 10">Latest 10 Numbers</choice>
      <choice value="| head 15">Latest 15 Numbers</choice>
      <default>| head 5</default>
      <search>
        <query>
        </query>
        <earliest>0</earliest>
        <latest></latest>
      </search>
    </input>

Then run a search like this (obviously to adapt to your need):

your_search
| stats count BY host
| sort -count
$my_token$

Ciao.

Please be more specific about your requirements and what you want to see on the dashboard.

In my mind, the last 5 numbers are , -1, -2, -3, and -4, but they're not very useful in Splunk so perhaps you're thinking of 5 other numbers.
