How to update a dropdown list from another dropdown list

Hi

In my dashboard I use a first dropdown list with static values

These values make reference to the SITE fields I use in my different reports with the lookup below :

 

    | lookup TOTO.csv HOSTNAME as host output SITE 

 

 

Now, I would be able to update a second dropdown list from the first need

It means that when I select the SITE field in the first drilldown, I would like to display in the second dropdown list  all the host corresponding to the SITE selected in the first dropdown list 

Could you help me please?

@jip31,

Use the token from first dropdown in the second drop down by using a dynamic search.

Please find a run anywhere example

<form>
  <label>Drop Down</label>
  <fieldset submitButton="false">
    <input type="dropdown" token="site">
      <label>Site</label>
      <choice value="site1">Site1</choice>
      <choice value="site2">Site2</choice>
      <choice value="site3">Site3</choice>
      <default>site1</default>
      <initialValue>site1</initialValue>
    </input>
    <input type="dropdown" token="host">
      <label>Host</label>
      <fieldForLabel>hosts</fieldForLabel>
      <fieldForValue>hosts</fieldForValue>
      <search>
        <query>|makeresults|eval site="site1 site1 site2 site2 site3 site3"|makemv site|mvexpand site
|appendcols [|makeresults | eval hosts="host1 host2 host3 host4 host5 host6"|makemv hosts|mvexpand hosts]
|where site="$site$"
|stats count by hosts|fields hosts</query>
        <earliest>-15m</earliest>
        <latest>now</latest>
      </search>
    </input>
  </fieldset>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <table>
        <search>
          <query>|makeresults|eval site="site1 site1 site2 site2 site3 site3"|makemv site|mvexpand site
|appendcols [|makeresults | eval hosts="host1 host2 host3 host4 host5 host6"|makemv hosts|mvexpand hosts]
|where site="$site$"</query>
          <earliest>-15m</earliest>
          <latest>now</latest>
        </search>
        <option name="drilldown">none</option>
      </table>
    </panel>
  </row>
</form>

Table is just a display of second dropdown search
