I have two different inputs, "by usage" and "by process", and I want to use a radio button to control the those inputs to be visible to end -user. How can I do that? Thanks.

<form>
  <label>Process Tracking</label>
  <fieldset submitButton="false">
    <input type="radio" token="p_cat">
      <label>Category</label>
      <choice value="u">by Usage</choice>
      <choice value="p">by Process</choice>
      <default>u</default>
      <initialValue>u</initialValue>
    </input>
    <input type="text" token="p_process">
      <label>by Process</label>
    </input>
    <input type="dropdown" token="p_usage" searchWhenChanged="false">
      <label>by Usage</label>
      <search>
        <query>| inputlookup usage_ranges.csv</query>
        <earliest>0</earliest>
      </search>
      <fieldForLabel>range</fieldForLabel>
      <fieldForValue>range</fieldForValue>
      <initialValue>usage<1%</initialValue>
      <default>usage<1%</default>
    </input>
  </fieldset>
...
</form>

Try like this

<form>
   <label>Process Tracking</label>
   <fieldset submitButton="false">
     <input type="radio" token="p_cat">
       <label>Category</label>
       <choice value="u">by Usage</choice>
       <choice value="p">by Process</choice>
       <default>u</default>
       <initialValue>u</initialValue>
       <change>
         <condition label="by Usage">
           <set token="showProcess">Y</set>
           <unset token="showUsage"></unset>
         </condition>
         <condition label="by Process">
           <set token="showUsage">Y</set>
           <unset token="showProcess"></unset>
         </condition>
       </change>
     </input>
     <input type="text" token="p_process" depends="$showProcess$">
       <label>by Process</label>
     </input>
     <input type="dropdown" token="p_usage" depends="$showUsage$" searchWhenChanged="false">
       <label>by Usage</label>
       <search>
         <query>| inputlookup usage_ranges.csv</query>
         <earliest>0</earliest>

Hi somesoni2, thank you for your solution. It works as expected. I have another question if you don't mind. When the "p_process" is set, I just want to pass "process="$p_process$" to the search query, but for the range, I want to remove "process="$p_process$" and adding a lookup for range. Basically, there will be different search queries corresponding to the condition. From the search panel, I tried to set up condition like below, but it doesn't work at all. What did I miss?

XYZ



index=abc sourcetype=efg | lookup my_lookup process AS process | where range="$p_usage$" | stats dc(host) AS count by process


index=abc sourcetype=efg process="$p_process$" | stats dc(host) AS count by process

$tk_query$
