require([
    "splunkjs/mvc/searchmanager",
    "splunkjs/mvc/dropdownview",
    "splunkjs/mvc/simplexml/ready!"
], function(SearchManager, DropdownView) {

    // Use this search to populate the dropdown with index values
    let my_search = new SearchManager({
        id: "example-search",
        search: "index=_internal |stats count by source |table source"

No that's not it. I want my dropdown to be powered by a search but which will be defined in a js.

 

Something like this?

I'm not sure I understand the question - where is the JS coming from?

Are you saying you want to create a list of dropdown choices from the result of that search

If so, simply set your input to be

    <input type="dropdown" token="your_token" searchWhenChanged="true">
      <label>Example Dropdown from search</label>
      <fieldForLabel>source</fieldForLabel>
      <fieldForValue>source</fieldForValue>
      <search>
        <query>index=_internal |stats count by source</query>
        <earliest>-24h@h</earliest>
        <latest>now</latest>
      </search>
    </input>
