I accidentally and completely messed up the advanced_intro2 XML code from UI Example. Can someone please let me know how I can restore it or provide me the XML so I can replace the correct one?

Thank you.

Hey lain179,

I think the following will be the best way to resolve it...
- First download the app directly from the site and not through Splunk Manager:
- Copy the file to your tmp directory:
cp ui_examples_app.tar.gz /tmp
- Extract and untar the file
tar zxvf ui_examples_app.tar.gz
- Copy the file using the splunk user to the existing app directory
sudo -u splunk cp /tmp/ui_examples/default/data/ui/views/advanced_intro2.xml ~/$SPLUNKHOME/etc/apps/ui_examples/default/data/ui/views/advanced_intro2.xml

I hope that this was able to assist with your restore.

Regards Vince

Sorry, I forgot to mention that if you want to overwrite the entire app, you can simply reinstall from the manager
