chart (event tokens):
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The clicked field name is the name of the field or series for the y-Axis if present (similar to click.name2). If the name of the field or series is not available the field or category for the x-axis is used (click.name).

Data Property Description
click.name Name of the field or category for the x-axis. Not available when the legend has been clicked.
click.value Value of the field or category for the x-axis. Not available when the legend has been clicked.
click.name2 Name of the field or series for the y-axis.
click.value2 Value of the field or series for the y-axis. Not available when the legend has been clicked.
row. Any field values along the y-axis at the same point as the click on the x-axis. Not available when the legend has been clicked.
row. Value of the x-axis. Not available when the legend has been clicked.
earliest/latest Time range of the clicked chart segment, or if not applicable, the time range of the search.

I think all you are missing is putting the column heading in, i.e. $row.host$ (or whatever).

If it isn't this, then are you using simple or advanced XML? Can you share the appropriate part of the XML?

No,it will populate and used for x axis values,it worked fine.

abc_xxx_summary.transaction_name field value is not caturing when I clicked

    <link>
      <![CDATA[

            /app/on_b/search?q=search%20index%3Donb%20sourcetype%3Depfapp%20OnB-*%20abc_xxx_summary.transaction_name%3D"$row.abc_xxx_summary.transaction_name$"%20%7Cbucket%20span%3D1m%20_time%7Cchart%20count%20as%20Errors%20OVER%20_time&earliest=&latest=&display.general.type=statistics
                                ]]>
    </link>      
 </drilldown>

Am I right in assuming when you click on the link you see "$row.abc_xxx_summary.transaction_name$" in the actual link opened?
If so, I think the problem is that you are using CDATA and that the tokens might not be populated inside this. Can you check?

Thanks for the response.
It was typo,I used $row.fieldname$ and using simple xml.

So can you share the XML - it should help us work out the problem?
