Add dashboard tab to app?

[metylkinandrey]

Good afternoon!
The infrastructure command gave me permissions so that I can add a dashboard tab to my application. I can't find where it's done.
Please advise.

Please detail the steps you have gone through so far and what you have already tried

I found where it needs to be edited:

/en-US/manager/esystem/data/ui/nav/default?action=edit&ns=esystem&uri=%2FservicesNS%2Fnobody%2Fesystem%2Fdata%2Fui%2Fnav%2Fdefault

Default settings:

<nav search_view="search" color="#5CC05C">
<view name="search" default="true" />
<view name="analytics_workspace" />
<view name="datasets" />
<view name="reports" />
<view name="alerts" />
<view name="dashboards" />
</nav>

Where esystem is the application name.

Hi @metylkinandrey,

yes,as described in the above link, you have to edit this file or (better) to use the GUI at [Settings > User Interface > Navigation menu > default].

then you have to insert you dashboard.

I usually put the Splunk default links in a dedicated menu, something like this:

<nav>
<view name="esystem" default="true" />
<collection label="Default Splunk">
   <view name="search" />
   <view name="analytics_workspace" />
   <view name="datasets" />
   <view name="reports" />
   <view name="alerts" />
   <view name="dashboards" />
<collection>
</nav>

Ciao.

Thank you so much!

My test splunk already has all default tabs. Therefore, there was no such problem. Basically splunk, alas, point-blank I don’t see where to set it up).

Hi @metylkinandrey,

let me understand: you need to edit and modify your app navigation menu, is it correct?

If this is your need, here you can find the instructions to do this:

I needed to edit these settings:

<nav search_view="search" color="#5CC05C">
<view name="search" default="true" />
<view name="analytics_workspace" />
<view name="datasets" />
<view name="reports" />
<view name="alerts" />
<view name="dashboards" />
</nav>

Is there documentation on how to get into these settings? Suddenly someone needs it? I just found what I need on the direct url, and I saw the address in the internal documentation in confluence.

So far, I've only scoured the splunk frantically, trying to find where it's done))
Screenshots show what I need.
