Hi jip31,
what do you mean with "text box":

  • a text input,
  • a fixed text,
  • a panel that display a search result as a text value,

?

In first case see in the Splunk Dashboard Examples App ( https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/1603/ ) how to insert an input ibox n a panel.
In the second case, you have to insert an html tag in a panel (see the Splunk Dashboard Examples to do this).
In the third case, you have to create a search and display it using a Single Value Panel.

Bye-.

@jip31 are you looking for something like the following:

<form>
  <label>Panel with Text Box and Table</label>
  <fieldset submitButton="false"></fieldset>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <input type="text" token="tokText" searchWhenChanged="true">
        <label>tokText</label>
        <default>log_level!=INFO</default>
      </input>
      <chart>
        <search>
          <query> index=_internal sourcetype=splunkd earliest=-1h@h latest=now $tokText$
| timechart count by component
          </query>
        </search>
        <option name="charting.chart">line</option>
      </chart>
    </panel>
  </row>
</form>

Hi jip31,
If you need to insert a text box input in a panel, see in the Splunk Dashboard Examples App.
in few words:

<panel>
   <input type="text" token="limit" searchWhenChanged="true">
      <label>Enter an integer N:</label>
      <default>5</default>
   </input>
   <event>
      <title>_Internal Top 3</title>
       <searchString>index=_internal  | head 3</searchString>
       <earliestTime>$time_range2.earliest$</earliestTime>
       <latestTime>$time_range2.latest$</latestTime>
       <option name="maxLines">5</option>
       <option name="raw.drilldown">full</option>
       <option name="rowNumbers">0</option>
       <option name="type">list</option>
       <option name="count">5</option>
    </event>
 </panel>
