As an app add-on creater we don't have control on the Indexes available on the Splunk Cloud on user environment.  In App's Input.config we set the index= default.  

In the add-on flow.. we add a data input  configuration ..with new input stream urls and  the index, it should point to.. shown in the below image

As you see the  index is populated with "default"

How can we enable the

  • ability to show up all available indexes in the drop down
  • If the desired index is not in the available list .. how can we enable user to  input  a string and trigger a search
  • If user don't want to pick a index then.. the default should be selected
