Hiding Splunk bar

Dear Splunkers, 

 

My goal is to expose only some dashboards to external customer. Created a dedicated role and user with minimal access to a single app where these dashboards are placed. However, I'm struggling with hiding Splunk bar/navigation menu. I.e. the customer can still use "find" window to search for some reports and dashboards he is not obliged to see.

Could you please lead me on how to hide it? 

The navigation menu looks like below:

 

<nav search_view="search">
  <view name="search" />
  <view name="datasets" />
  <view hideSplunkBar="true" />
  <view hideAppBar="true" />
  <view hideChrome="true" />
  <view name="reports" />
  <view name="alerts" />
  <view name="dashboards" default='true'/>
</nav>

 

 

regards,

Sz

Hiding those elements is a function of each dashboard, not of the navigation menu.

<dashboard hideChrome="true" version="1.1">
...
</dashboard>

See https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/9.2.0/Viz/PanelreferenceforSimplifiedXML#dashboard_or_f... for the available options.

This works fine (I used "form"  insted of "dashboard"  as a dashboard has many inputs).

Thanks!
