I have a dashboard where I want to get the following features:

1. Drill down option i mentioned to "Link to search" but when i am clicking on the graph it is the search page is opening in same tab, but i want to open that in another tab.
2. I have another panel where the bar graph is showing by hosts, so i want to show up different colors for each host, how can i do this.

3. i want to display the values on the graph, it is displaying but it is overlapping, how can make them display clearly.

Hi @SanjayReddy , thank you for replying .

1. now its working as expected-Drill down option in new tab.

2. I have another panel where the bar graph is showing by hosts, so i want to show up different colors for each host, how can i do this

For this my query is: index=asdf sourcetype=ghtfg |stats count by host.
So my dashboard panel is displaying with multiple hosts as bar graph.
here i want to show each single host in different colours.

For example: in the dashboard panel if it is dsiplaying 4 hosts
1st host should display as red, 2nd host should display as green so on....

3.. i want to display the values on the graph, it is displaying but it is overlapping, how can make them display clearly.
if you see here all values are overlapping, i want this values should individually without overlapping.

If you are doing

search...
| stats count by host

then just add

| transpose 0 header_field=host column_name=Host

but that graph example you posted is not a count by host.

If you have two fields then you can use the chart command to get multi-series

search...
| chart count over X by Y

where Y will by the multi series that is shown in different colours

As for your overlapping values, with your non-rounded values, where you are displaying 13 decimal places, you should round those values - do you really need all 13 places??

| eval x=round(x,2)

will round to 2dp

2. for the multi series colours : Please tell me what i should add so that i can get the different colours.
Here i am calculating the avg response time by host and code_desc.


i am using the below query :
index=xxxxx code_desc=NH23FG OR code_desc=TH45GH source=xxxx*
|stats avg(responsetime) as Avg_response by host, code_desc
|sort by Avg_response
|where Avg_response>500

Output:

3. i have rounded up the value upto 2 decimal places, now it is showing correctly, but if i want to show complete number upto 13 .
how can i do that??

For multi series colour, use

| chart avg(responsetime) as Avg_response over host by code_desc

rather than stats

If you want to show 13 decimal places for all values on the chart, then it will look like the messy chart you have.

There will be no field Avg_response using chart, so you can put the chart line after your where clause

index=xxxxx code_desc=NH23FG OR code_desc=TH45GH source=xxxx*
| stats avg(responsetime) as Avg_response by host, code_desc
| where Avg_response>500
| sort by Avg_response
| chart values(Avg_response) as Avg_response over host by code_desc
