How can Dashboard inputs drive pivot table panels?

I have a few panels that are driven by pivot tables. Is there a way to use the dashboard inputs as a filter in the search string for these panels?

Sure you can't! Use the "|pivot " command to drive your pivot table and add the custom condition driven by the input fields in your search.

Sorry to take you backwards.

But how exactly do you do it? I'm new to Splunk

Yep...... too quick to answer from my iPad....
here's a sample using the OIDemo DataModel

    <title>Pivot - Sales</title>
    <search>
      <query>| pivot OIDemo Sales count(Sales) AS "Numero di Sales" SPLITROW _time AS _time PERIOD auto FILTER planType is * FILTER networkProviderName is $networkProvider$ SORT 100 _time ROWSUMMARY 0 COLSUMMARY 0 NUMCOLS 0 SHOWOTHER 1</query>
      <earliest>-30d@d</earliest>
      <latest>now</latest>
    </search>

...

But you can also use directly the "tstats" command, which is more powerful and flexible in setting conditions and let you manipulate freely the results:

      <query>|tstats avg(Orders.Sales.planPrice) AS ARPU FROM datamodel=OIDemo WHERE (nodename=Orders.Sales)  $networkProvider$ $planType$ | eval avg=59 | eval ARPU=round(ARPU,2) | transpose | rename "row 1" as ARPU | fields ARPU | rangemap field=ARPU low=60-999 elevated=53-59 high=43-52 severe=0-42 default=low</query>
      <earliest>-30d@d</earliest>
      <latest>now</latest>
    </search>
