Hi all ,

I want to create the dashboard in which there should be a dropdown with all index's in my splunk server and if I select any one of the items in the dropdown, i want to view the log files in that index.

So after selecting one of the log files I want to see the trendchart please help.

I would start by creating a simple view that runs a search on load that pulls splunk and gets the list of indexes back, I would then use that list to populate a search and have the search when the drop down is changed

see http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/5.0/Viz/Buildandeditforms

for starters
