How do I create a form with a customized Popup modal?

[lucasfbeinjamin]

Hello everyone,

I have a question and I'm reading about creating forms in Splunk ... but it's complicated!

My idea was to click on a button that I already know how to do via html / CSS, which would link to a new form within a modal popup(i don't know how to do that), and I wanted to customize within that popup with some tabs and some other buttons.

Does anyone have something similar for me to customize, or some documentation that has to do directly with this?

HI,

maybe a dashboard with input forms will help better than putting the whole user guidance into a modal. But that could be a bad idea as well.

As far as modals go, there are some points of information:
- either you might have a look into using Bootstrap Modal: https://www.w3schools.com/bootstrap/bootstrap_modal.asp | http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.2.1/ReleaseNotes/Bootstrap
- Make use of this App: https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/3672/#/details
- Look into this dev articel from 2014: https://www.splunk.com/blog/2014/02/24/using-bootstrap-modal-with-splunk-simple-xml.html

Good luck!
