How to add a dummy row to the table in the Splunk dashboard.
We are receiving 2 files everyday 4 times in between 6-7:30AM, 11-12:30 PM, 6-7:30PM, 9-10:05PM.
I need output like below if received one file means has to display like missing other file.

Using | makeresults command we can create a row but it is applicable while calculating the timings.

Input :

Splunk can't find something that's not there.  You'll need to use makeresults or a lookup to populate what you expect and then replace that with actual indexed data.
