How to pass aggregate function from drop down to time series chart

[kirrusk]

Hi,

I'm trying to pass the aggregate function from the dropdown menu in the Splunk dashboard to the time-series chart.

for example from dropdown, I want to pass 

actual,
Avg(),
max()

to below search 

index = _internal sourcetype = * |  search field=* Exhost=*  | chart max(value) by _time,Exhost

Just create a dropdown with a token name, let's say, "argfunc". Then in your search do

index = _internal sourcetype = * |  search field=* Exhost=*  | chart $argfunc$(value) by _time,Exhost

 As simple as that.
