@ajayjuneja - Its because input_encoded is HTML input and not Splunk Input Filter.

* You see with HTML input there is no token binding.

* Either you use Splunk's Text Input Filter instead of HTML textarea.

* Or you need to manually bind the HTML text input value with a token with custom Javascript handler.

    // Get a reference to the textarea element
    var textarea = document.getElementById('input_encoded');
    var tokens = mvc.Components.getInstance('default');
    var submittedTokens = mvc.Components.getInstance('submitted');

    // Add an event listener to capture textarea input changes
    textarea.addEventListener('input', function() {
      // Get the current value of the textarea
      var newValue = textarea.value;

      // Update the Splunk token value
      tokens.set('input_encoded', newValue);
      submittedTokens.set('input_encoded', newValue);
    });

(Above is not the complete code, but for your reference, how you can achieve this in Splunk JS.)

 

I hope this helps!!! Kindly upvote if it does!!!
