hi all,

can somebody help with populating a dropdown list via JavaScript? My goal is to pass search results to allow to choose it in dropdown "choices " list.

Thanks in advance.

code is like:

require([
        "splunkjs/mvc",
        "splunkjs/mvc/searchmanager",
        "splunkjs/mvc/dropdownview",
        "splunkjs/mvc/simplexml/ready!"
    ], function(
        mvc,
        SearchManager,
        DropdownView,
    ) {
    var ddsearch = new SearchManager({
            id: "ddsearch2",
            preview: true,
            cache: true,
            search: "| inputlookup earthquakes.csv | table Region | dedup Region | head 6"
        });

        var dropdown1 = new DropdownView({
            id: "dropdown1",
        labelField: "Region",
            valueField: "Region",
            default: "All",
            value: mvc.tokenSafe("$ddtok$"),
            el: $("#dropdown1")
        }).render();
    })

SimpleXML can do this out of the box, via the graphical editor. If you like you can then inspect the generated JS code.

You can inspect the generated JS code in a SimpleXML dashboard to see how Splunk's doing it.
