Help on drilldown token

hello

as you can see, I use a token in order to drilldown from a table panel to another table panel

        <drilldown>
          <set token="host">$click.value$</set>
        </drilldown>
      </table>
    </panel>
  </row>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <table>
        <title>% de paquets VMware perdus</title>
        <search>
          <query>`index`(sourcetype=netproc_tcp" host=$host$
 

but when I refresh te dashboard my second panel says "waiting for input"

is there a solution to always display the events in the second panel and to drilldown when I click on the token field?

thanks

At the start of your XML add an <init> section and set a default for the host token, i.e.

<form>
  <init>
    <set token="host">*</set>
  </init>
...

so when the dashboard first loads, or is refreshed, the default for the 'host' token will be all hosts and the second panel will show all hosts.

Hi @jip31,

to be more sure, I'd need to see the search, anyway, having a table, please try to use:

<set token="host">$row.host$</set>

$click.value$ is for drilldown from graphs.

Ciao.

Giuseppe
