Specify drill down search

I'm relatively new to Splunk and am creating a new view to display the average timings of certain events over the past 5 mins. I've created a macro search to carry out the search which takes two parameters (transaction name and duration to search), so in my first panel this is EVENT_*_LOGIN and -5m. The view currently displays a simple table of results per distinct event name.

What I would like to do is when a user clicks on a particular row it will drill down to timeline view of all events for that transaction over the past 4 hours. Is there a way to specify the information a click or drill down displays?

Apologies if this vague, please message me if more info. needed.
