Hi,

I'm using ad hoc search for a glass table. By search, when run i'm able to get the value that i want. But in the glass table, error appear as "invalid search or missing required fields for thresholding ". Any idea or opinion that i can start to look at?

Thanks for your info. I'm still rookie in ITSI Splunk, based from the documentation, on step 3, it asked to check on Time Picker, may I know where can I find it?

For info, the time picker is at the top of the glass table :

Just the "Now" button.

Hi

Please verify the threshold field you have to specify. Refer following link for Configure ad hoc search widgets:
