i put in some data in a text input and press enter, can i link it to another dashboard upon pressing enter key ?
basically drilldown from text input + press enter key

i am able to drill down on clicks, but not on enter key.

or any other way of achieving this ?

Hi @jiaqya

Can you please try this example? This code will open a google with search parameter passed in the text box.

test.xml

<form script="test.js">
  <label>dashboard test</label>
  <fieldset submitButton="false">
    <input type="text" token="searchTxt" id="searchTxt_id">
      <label>field1</label>
    </input>
  </fieldset>
</form>

test.js

require(["jquery", "splunkjs/mvc","splunkjs/mvc/utils","splunkjs/mvc/simplexml/ready!"], function($, mvc, utils) {

$(document).ready(function() {
    $($('input[id^="searchTxt_id_"]')[0]).keypress(function (event) {
        var key = (event.keyCode ? event.keyCode : event.which);
        if(key == 13)  // the enter key code
        {
            utils.redirect("https://www.google.com/search?q="+$($('input[id^="searchTxt_id_"]')[0]).val()
,"_blank");
            return false;  
        }
    });
});
});

Thanks
