Help with time token

[tomapatan]

Hi Everyone,

I`ve got a dropdown input that generates 30 date entries and stores the choice in the "date.tok2" token.
I`d like to be able to pass the token to a table to run a search over the period chosen from the drop down, but this is not working as expected (not generating any results - I know the query works because if I run it independently it produces results, so the problem must be with the token).

I`ve got an identical drop down menu that works fine and it successfully passes the token onto the table at the beginning of the dashboard (that token is called "date.tok" and is used to set "earliest_tok" and "latest_tok").

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

      <input type="dropdown" token="date.tok2" searchWhenChanged="true">
        <label>Date</label>
        <fieldForLabel>Date</fieldForLabel>
        <fieldForValue>earliest</fieldForValue>
        <search>
          <query>| makeresults 
| timechart span=d count 
| sort - _time 
| where _time &lt;= relative_time(now(),"@d") 
| fields - count 
| eval Date = strftime(_time,"%d-%b-%y"), earliest=relative_time(_time,"@d"), latest=relative_time(_time,"@d") 
| dedup Date</query>
          <earliest>-30d@d</earliest>
          <latest>now</latest>
        </search>
        <selectFirstChoice>true</selectFirstChoice>
        <change>
          <set token="earliest_tok2">$row.earliest$</set>
          <set token="latest_tok2">$row.latest$</set>
        </change>
      </input>
      <table>
        <search>
          <query>| ...| ...</query>
          <earliest>$earliest_tok2$</earliest>
          <latest>$latest_tok2$</latest>
        </search>
        <option name="drilldown">none</option>
        <option name="refresh.display">none</option>
        <option name="rowNumbers">false</option>
        <option name="wrap">true</option>
      </table>

Found the problem...the latest time was same as the earliest time.
Correct syntax: 

| eval Date = strftime(_time,"%d-%b-%y"), earliest=relative_time(_time,"@d"), latest=relative_time(_time,"+d@d")
