"Reports" tab of one of our apps is missing from the Navigation bar as seen in the image below.

Below is the content of default.xml from "local/data/ui/nav" directory. Everything except "Reports" tab is in <view> tag but reports is in <collection> tag. Can anyone please help in bringing this report tab back and explain how this collection tag works.

Hi @kgiri253 ,

surely the match that you indicated isn't correct, check it.

I usually prefer to indicate every report in a line:

<saved name="<your_report>" />

you can find more information at https://dev.splunk.com/enterprise/docs/developapps/createapps/addnavsplunkapp/

Ciao.

By default the above mentioned limit is 500 and the reports are mentioned in lexographical order. Our report was starting from "S" which was going over and above 500. We have increased the limit now to 1000 which worked for us.

Thanks again for prompt reply 🙂
