Solved: How to reference a dashboard token in an HTML pane... - Page 2

ScottSusman · ‎10-17-2016

I regularly get requests for some data that I get from several searches. The people requesting it like it formatted just so, so instead of manually formatting it each time I'd like to have my searches in a dashboard with all the needed data being sent to an html panel so I can format it correctly.

Can someone please help direct me to what I'm doing wrong? I've tried changing the table to a single value and tried various ways to set the token.

Run anywhere:

<dashboard>
  <label>test</label>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <table>
        <search>
          <query>| metadata type=hosts | head 1</query>
          <earliest>-60m</earliest>
          <latest>now</latest>
          <condition match="'job.isDone'">
            <set token="MyHost">$results.host$</set>
          </condition>
        </search>
      </table>
    </panel>
    <panel>
      <html>
        <p>Host: $MyHost$</p>
      </html>
    </panel>
  </row>
</dashboard>

I get back:

firstTime   host         lastTime     recentTime   totalCount   type
1476644722   myHostName   1476736882   1476736882   154103       hosts

and Host: $MyHost$ instead of Host: myHostName

Thank you!

try setting the job.isDone equal to 1, so that it has to be true to set the token?

  <search>
    <query>...</query>
    <done>
      <condition match="'job.isDone'"=1>
      <set token="host">$result.host$</set>
     </condition>
    </done>
  </search>
</panel>


<html>
      $host$
      </html>
