Hi @priyastalin,

to create a chain in inputs, you gave to insert the token of the previous input in the second.

So if the first and the second dropdowns are $group$ and $device$

in the search of the third dropdown put the two tokens:

your_search $group$ $device$
| dedup timeframe
| sort timeframe
| table timeframe

Ciao.

Hi @priyastalin,

as you can see in my previous answer, you have to identify the search to list the timeframes and then use the other two tokens.

Can you share the search for timeframe?

Ciao.
