Hi,

I am currently trying to do a drill down for my panel when i click on each month. However when I click on the month , the month retrieve was in epoch time format. How do i work around this so I can do drilldown for my timechart? Thanks

Best Regards,
Aloysius

You can use an eval token instead of the native "set" that Splunk UI uses.

    <drilldown>
      <set token="t">$click.value$</set>
      <eval token="t">strftime($click.value$,"%m")</eval>
    </drilldown>

This will set your token to the month number. For more info on date and times formats:
