using search result output to set title of panel in simple xml

[ektasiwani]

Hyee,

I have some 12 hour data in XML file and i am using that data to plot graph in splunk dashboard.
I want to set the time for which i have first available data as title.

How to get this? i don't want to create any drop down or input field or radio field to set token.
Is there any other way to set token?

Or is there any other way to achieve this.

Thanks

You can add a "Single Value" panel to the dashboard, use the search for the graph as the base, and select only the time field.

<row>
    <panel>
    <single_value>
       <search base="my_search"><query>fields myTime</query></search>
    </single_value>
     <chart>
     <search id="my_search"><query>......</query></search>
     </chart>
 </panel>
 </row>
