Hi Guys,

I have a dashboard let's call it A which includes reports of two subnets S1 and S2 (and also some join reports of these two) I need to use two radio button one for each subnet like R1 and R2 such as by selecting R1 it shows the reports related to S1 and selecting R2 shows the reports of S2. so far I have no idea how to use this feature of splunk, can you please help me with the syntax of making these two buttons in my dashboard?

Thanks in advance

Assuming you're on 6.1, you open the dashboard A and click edit. Then add a radio-type input and click its pencil icon to edit. Fill out that form and remember the name of the token. Use that token in your search ($token_name$) to tell the search which subnet it's working on.
