Traffic Light Dashboard

Hi,

I'm wanting to create a Traffic Light Dashboard based on a count of incoming records.

What would be the best way to achieve this. 

Counts over a time period?

Hi @auzark,

This app will get you started with the visualization

Traffic Light Visualisations 

And this command "rangemap" is referenced by the app which will assist you in getting the data formatted right

Search Reference: rangemap 

 

Let us know if this helps you out with your dashboard!

V/R,

Hi nuwest,

Thanks for your reply and my apologies for my delayed response.

I can not seem to get the app you supplied me to work.

The dashboard panel I wish to display is quite simple in that I wish to highlight the rate of splunk ingestion from my source. My query returns a single count of events over a 15 minute period. I have worked out how I can display the value of "0" in Red, 0 to 50 in Orange and any count over 50 in Green.  What I am having issues with is representing the same in a traffic light manner or even alternatively a circle in the desired color with the count value displayed in the circle.

Any direction would be appreciated. 

Regards, Auzark.

This is a good visualisation with various configuration options to display the values in different types of display.

You can do quite a bit with the config settings with the app.

Hi @auzark the rangemap command would be simple and easy for your case i think.. (altered the counts little bit for Orange and Red)

... | rangemap field=EventsCount green=50-99 orange=5-49 red=0-5 default=gray

 

thanks and best regards,
Sekar
