Splunk DB Connect 1: Where do I put the token name in a dbquery search string for a chart drilldown?

Hi,

I'm using Splunk 6.2.3 and DB Connect 1. I have connected to an Oracle database. I have applied an input drilldown on a chart, but it is showing "error in dbquery command". this command must be in first search". Please help me and share any document for this.

Thanks in advance,

dbquery command must exist as the first word in the query. you can use token fields inside the query or later part.
