Renaming Dashboard Names

Hello, 

I'm fairly new to Splunk and I'm hoping someone could help me rename the API names in my Dashboard.  I have several names associated with urlPthTxt.

"renaming" refers to changing the identifier of a field, as you did by changing "urlPNthTxt" to "API".  What you seek, however, is a change in the values stored in a field.  That requires an eval, replace, or sed (perhaps other commands that escape me ATM).

| replace "/V1/" with "" in API

or

| rex field=API mode=sed "s;/V1/;;"
