Dashboards & Visualizations

How to achieve event drill down from bar chart?

I have created a search based on dynamic inputs which then get put into a visualization bar chart.  I am attempting to use a drilldown token to click on the bar chart and then a panel will appear showing log events for that particular day.  Below is code I am using but cannot get the events to show up:

<form version="1.1">
<label>Dynamic Splunk Dashboard MSAPIGW</label>

I have gone through numerous Splunk documents and other various websites looking for solution but have yet to be able to get anything to work.  Any help is appreciated.

Hi @dickersons,

with the click.value token, you have to pass an epochtime, so try a different search:

index=$indexName$ cluster_name=$clusterName$ sourcetype=$mySourceType$ label_app=$labelApp$ $errorSearch$
| timechart span=1h count as hourcount

in this way, clicking on the bar you pass the epochtime (x axys) to the drilldown.

Ciao.

Giuseppe

P.S.: next time put code in the Code Sample window
