I want to simply run a search " index=main src=1.1.1.1", then select a workflow from the event and pass the src token from the event to a text input on a dashboard. I have tried POST it and GET. in the workflow parameters, but I'm just missing something I can figure out. and help will be much apricated. Thanks in advance.

[My Workflow Action]
display_location = event_menu
fields = *

link.target = blank
link.uri = my_dashboard?form.mytext=$src$
type = link

@tonymorin, I have converted to answer. You can accept the same to mark this as answered. I hope you have used fields = src to make the Workflow applicable only for events with src field.

@kamlesh_vaghela, I think field = * should be changed to

fields = src

Since the Workflow Action needs to pass on src parameter.
Other than that seems It should work, provided dashboard name is my_dashboard and text input token is mytext
