Splunk Search

problem with 'condition match'

Hello,

I want to conduct a search, set a token according to the search result and then set another bunch of tokens depending on the search result token.
However my tokens ($test1$, $test2$ and $test3$) get never set. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

<dashboard>
  <label>Titel</label>
  <row>
    <panel depends="$alwaysHideCSS$">
      <single>
        <search>
          <query>
            index=someSearch| rename searchResult AS XX
          </query>
          <earliest>-24h@h</earliest>
          <latest>now</latest>
          <done>
            <set token="testtest">$result.XX$</set>
          </done>
        </search>
        <drilldown>
          <condition match="5==5">
            <set token="test1">X5</set>
            <set token="test2">a</set>
            <set token="test3">b</set>
          </condition>
          <condition match="1==9">
            <set token="test1">a</set>
            <set token="test2">X2</set>
            <set token="test3">b</set>
          </condition>
          <condition match="2==3">
            <set token="test1">a</set>
            <set token="test2">b</set>
            <set token="test3">X3</set>
          </condition>
        </drilldown>
      </single>
    </panel>
  </row>
[... ] <!-- here I want to use those test-tokens but they never get set -->
</dashboard>

 
The token "testtest" is working. Why do the tokens ($test1$, $test2$ and $test3$) not get set? The condition "5==5" cannot be false.

Perhaps a silly question, but you are clicking on the single, right?

Oh, no. I wasn't. Thanks! Now it set's the tokens correctly but is it possible to do this automatically without having to click anything. Like in an <init> </init> environment. If so could you give me an example of how you would do it?


On a side note: is there a way to delete your own community posts? Earlier there was a problem with the splunk community servers I think, which lead to me posting five different threads with the same topic.

Look for this dropdown menu at the top of your post

Just to clarify I don't even need/want the <single>. I just added it because otherwise I couldn't use the drilldown with the different conditions.
I want to conduct a search (automatically as soon as the dashboard is loaded), set a token with the search result as a value and then depending on that value I want to set a bunch of other tokens.

If you need to set tokens to different values depending on the results, you can use things like

<eval token="anothertoken">if(a,b,c)</eval>
