Hi 

I want to put a bottom on a dashboard that when I hit it, run bashscript on splunk server, and show this message when it’s done “script executed successfully”.

 

Any idea?

Thanks

It isn't really a dashboard feature - you might be able to write a custom command to do what your script does and set up a panel at the end of your dashboard which uses the custom command. I do not have any examples of this.
