I have the below query which works fine in the 'Search' but when I take the same query to a dashboard which has panel with <single> display the query is giving syntax error.

<source query> | rex field=_raw "\"printerType\":\"(?<prnType>[^\"]+)\"" | table prnType | dedup prnType.

Error in dashboard

Unexpected close tag

Please help me what is wrong with the query

Hi @vn50b7z,

I think you are adding search into the dashboard source, < and > signs should be change to URL encoding,

Please try below;

| rex field=_raw "\"printerType\":\"(?&lt;prnType&gt;[^\"]+)\"" | table prnType

Another option is use 

<![CDATA[ ....
| rex field=_raw "\"printerType\":\"(?<prnType>[^\"]+)\"" | table prnType
]]>
