How to set timechart span from Splunk dashboard UI?

Dahara

Hello!

I would like to have timechart span configurable from the dashboard UI (e.g. via using dropdown field values), but I am not sure, how to set it up. Any help would be much appreciated!

I have done it with a radio button group but a dropdown would work just as well

    <input type="radio" token="span">
      <label>Bucket size</label>
      <choice value="1d">Daily</choice>
      <choice value="1h">Hourly</choice>
      <initialValue>1d</initialValue>
      <default>1d</default>
    </input>

Also, I have used a bin command, but timechart span=$span$ would work too.

| bin _time span=$span$
