Splunk Enterprise Security

More Enterprise Security Correlation Search Variable Substitution for Contributing Events- Is there documentation?

As in previous posts I am talking about using variables or tokens in the Contributing Events part of enterprise security.

 

1. When I use $host$ it substitutes the actual Splunk Host instead of the host returned from the correlation search. 

2. Can someone provide Splunk documentation links for creating or using Variables in the Drilldown search or contributing events search?

3. I am requesting and have requested in Splunk Ideas "TO MAKE THE **bleep** DRILL DOWN SEARCH WINDOW A MULTI-LINED TEXT BOX" since Splunk Enterprise Security version 6.0 and none of the GUI issues were not addressed! 

HELP ME OBI-WAN!!!
