remove app from dropdown list

I try to modify the flashtimeline to remove the app dropdown list on the right hand side upper corner or just leave Getting Started, Home and Search apps in there. I cannot find which module and what parameter i should use.

Thanks in advance.

The Advanced XML Module is "Splunk.Module.AccountBar"

You can remove the app dropdown with something like :

<module name="AccountBar" layoutPanel="appHeader">
<param name="mode">lite</param>
</module>

Or , if you want to keep the dropdown, 2 ways come to mind for limiting the apps displayed in the dropdown :

  1. Manager -> Apps : edit the app's properties to make it not visible
  2. Via Role based permissions , limit the visibility(read/write permissions on the app) to certain roles only
