Dashboards & Visualizations

Editable table

Hi all,

I would like to have a Table in a dashboard where I could edit certain fields, or delete entire rows. This is mainly to be able to modify lookup tables. I'd like to be able to do this without resorting to strange witchcraft that will probably break in future versions of Splunk. @sideview Utils' Lookup Updater is close to what I want, but I'd like something a bit simpler that could be embedded in a SimpleXML dashboard.

I tried to create a custom cell renderer, but this doesn't let me do anything at the row level (which I'd need to in order to gather all the values for a row, for example). I guess what I would need would be to extend a BaseRowRenderer or something like that, but there doesn't seem to be one. Does anybody have any ideas as to how I could do this?

Cheers,
Alex

In my company we created an app that did that kind of thing. You need a little bit of Javascript and python in order to be able to do that 😉

I'm afraid I cannot do that due to my company policy, plus I was not the one who developed it...
However feel free to send me an email or pm and I could give you the right contact in this company.

Hi @asimagu.

I'm glad to hear it's possible! Can you give me some more information as to how you did it? Of course, some code would be great! 🙂
