I would like to create an app with just a tab "search" and another tab with a specific dashboard (that I created).

How can I do it? Someone have any step by step or template?

Best regards,
Lopes.

Hi monteirolopes, The tab layout is defined by the "default.xml" file included in the app. More info here : http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.4.0/AdvancedDev/BuildNavigation

You can streamline the as desired with something like:

<nav search_view="search" color="#65A637">
  <view name="search" default='true' />
  <view name="yourdashboardname" />
</nav>

Please let me know if this answers your question!
