Dear All,

I am working dropdowns in my dashboard. I have country,state,city in my data. So my first drop down is country. Depending on selected country it should fill states from selected country in 2nd dropdown and depending on state selected it should fill city in 3rd dropdown. So may i know how to achieve this in splunk.

i am able to put dynamic values in dropdown. can anyone please help me here.

Thanks

Try this run anywhere sample (tested on 6.0.3, may work for 6.0.1 as well)

<form>
  <label>Cascading dropdown</label>
  <description/>
  <fieldset submitButton="false" autoRun="true">
        <input type="dropdown" token="varSourcetype" id="field1">       
          <label>SourceType :</label>
            <populatingSearch fieldForValue="sourcetype" fieldForLabel="sourcetype">
                <![CDATA[index=_internal earliest=-1h@h | top 1 sourcetype | table sourcetype ]]>
            </populatingSearch>
        </input>
    <input type="dropdown" token="varSource" id="field2">
            <label>Source :</label>         
            <populatingSearch fieldForValue="source" fieldForLabel="source">
                <![CDATA[index=_internal earliest=-1h@h sourcetype=$varSourcetype$ | stats count by source ]]>
            </populatingSearch>
        </input>
     <input type="dropdown" token="varComponent" id="field3">
            <label>Source :</label>         
            <populatingSearch fieldForValue="component" fieldForLabel="component">
                <![CDATA[index=_internal earliest=-1h@h sourcetype=$varSourcetype$ source=$varSource$| stats count by component ]]>
            </populatingSearch>
        </input>    
  </fieldset>

 <row>
    <table>
    <title>Volume distribution- sourcetype=$varSourcetype$ source=$varSource$ component=$varComponent$</title>
      <searchString>
        <![CDATA[index=_internal earliest=-1h@h sourcetype=$varSourcetype$ source=$varSource$
          component=$varComponent$| timechart span=5m count ]]>
      </searchString>
      <option name="count">10</option>
      <option name="previewResults">true</option>
