Please help me to select the multiple values from the saved search. i need to filter 2 or 3 values out of 6. this is the fieldname targetType =(name, employee, statement)

This is my search :

|inputlookup target_lookup 
| where targetType LIKE("$value$")
| makemv delim="," targetType
|table targetType

Saved search :

| savedsearch reportname $value$

This is not working for me. could you please help me to resolve the issue I will be very happy if anyone resolves this issue.

You can do it by giving

 |inputlookup target_lookup 
 | where targetType LIKE("$value1$") OR targetType LIKE("$value2$") OR targetType LIKE("$value3$")
 | makemv delim="," targetType
 |table targetType

| savedsearch reportname value1=val1 value1=val2 value1=val3

Or just create a macro and use it in a similat way

Then just call \macro_name(value1)`,`macro_name(value2)`,`macro_name(value3)``
