How do I integrate a javascript panel into a Splunk 6.1 dashboard?

[rlough]

Hi,

I've heard a lot about cool things that can be done using javascript and Splunk, so I was wondering if someone could explain to me how I could go about creating a javascript panel on one of my dashboards.

Thank you in advance!

Check out the example app, lots of working examples.

You can put your own JS into a dashboard by converting it to HTML. In the long run it'd be best to get your JS added to your apps as a reusable piece though.

So with the HTML, do I just paste it in the XML? Sorry if I sound completely dumb on this topic.

When editting a dashboard there is an option to convert to HTML.

I see, it looks like that option is disabled for me.
Thanks anyways!

Is there a way to add javascript without an app? I don't have app-altering privileges and was hoping to be able to do this directly on the dashboard.
