Hi,
I have dynamic users in the input type which i am populating in multiselect
Now i want to give the user the option to choose from AND or OR as sometimes the user want to see values for userA AND userB and sometimes userA OR userB
Is it possible.

As of now i know how to user either one option. How to include both options ?

If the logical operator is dynamic, you probably might need to depend on a token to set them dynamically based on user choice.

For e.g, in the below XML, user selects the operation before he selects the user information.

<form>
  <label>MultiSelect</label>
  <fieldset submitButton="false">
    <input type="radio" token="ops">
      <label>Operation</label>
      <choice value="AND">AND</choice>
      <choice value="OR">OR</choice>
      <default>AND</default>
      <initialValue>AND</initialValue>
    </input>
    <input type="multiselect" token="users">
      <label>Users</label>
      <choice value="UserA">UserA</choice>
      <choice value="UserB">UserB</choice>
      <choice value="UserC">UserC</choice>
      <default>UserA</default>
      <initialValue>UserA</initialValue>
      <delimiter>  $ops$ </delimiter>
    </input>
  </fieldset>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <html>
        <h1> $users$</h1>
      </html>
    </panel>
  </row>
</form>

Based on your actual requirement, you may extend it and add additional conditions on the token changes.

Happy Splunking!
