Solved: Add 2 static rows to dropdown search results befor...

basandlin · ‎10-20-2020

I am populating dropdown options with the following search. Right now, this is the search.

| search service="$service_tok$"
| stats dc(region) by region Platform
| sort - Platform
| rex field=region "_(?<parse_regions>[^_]+)$"
| eval formatted_region = coalesce(parse_regions, region)

I am doing some formatting to make my list look like this:

Azure - Global
Azure - Central US
AWS - Global
AWS - ap-northeast-1

However, we would like to add two rows with 'label' fields called "AWS" and "Azure" so that we can style them in CSS to be the labels in a sectioned list like so:

*Azure*
Global
Central US
__________
*AWS*
Global
ap-northeast-1

any ideas how I could add these 2 rows and have the sort work out to where the labels are at the top?

I have tried to add these choices with appendpipe, but the row appears, then disappears before the search completes.

Does this example give you what you want?

<form>
  <label>test_dropdown</label>
  <fieldset submitButton="false">
    <input type="dropdown" token="region_select" searchWhenChanged="true">
      <label>Choose Cloud/Region</label>
      <fieldForLabel>region_label</fieldForLabel>
      <fieldForValue>region_choice</fieldForValue>
      <search>
        <query>| makeresults
| eval _raw="cloud,region
Azure,Global
Azure,Central US
AWS,Global
AWS,ap-northeast-1"
| multikv forceheader=1
| table cloud region
| appendpipe [ 
  | stats count by cloud 
  | eval region="!"
]
| sort cloud region
| eval region_choice=if(region="!","!".cloud."!",cloud."!".region)
| eval region_label=if(region="!",cloud,region)</query>
        <earliest>-24h@h</earliest>
        <latest>now</latest>
