Dashboards & Visualizations

Dynamically populate dashboard panel title

I have a dashboard that has 3 Inputs - "Change Type", time and text box.
The "Change Type" is dynamically populated using "choice value" based on a search string. There are two change types, Config and Admin.
Example:
<form theme="dark">
<label>Admin and Config Change Reports</label>
<description>Change Events</description>
<fieldset submitButton="true" autoRun="false">
<input type="dropdown" token="tok_change" searchWhenChanged="true">
<label>Change Type:</label>
<choice value="index=admin_changes <some other spl>">Admin change</choice>
<choice value="index=config_changes <some other spl>">Config change</choice>

The users much choose from a drop down, one of the above change choices. Once the choice is made a table is populated with the results.

What I want to do is when the panel (table) is populated I want the "change type" to be the panel title.

Thanks in advance.

Try something like this

<form .....
  <fieldset submitButton="false">
    <input type="dropdown" token="configType">
      <label>Config Type</label>
      <choice value="value1">Admin Change</choice>
      <choice value="value2">Config Change</choice>
      <change>
        <condition>
          <set token="panelTitle">$label$</set>
        </condition>
      </change>
    </input>
  </fieldset>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <title>Showing data for $panelTitle$</title>
