I have dashboard panels which set token values with $result.<field_name>$, however our environment is a little congested and the searches will sit at 99% or 98.9 or 100% but won't actually finalize until maybe 60-90 seconds later. I see the results are there and are what i'm expecting, however the tokens won't set unless the panel searches are finalized. I've tried placing those tokens in the below <progress>
<condition match="'job.resultCount' > 0">
<set token="abc">$result.field1$</set>
<set token="cba">$result.field2$</set>
</condition>
</progress> but it still waits until the search finalizes before my other panels can utilize those tokens. is there anyway to finalize panels after a set amount of time with an 'option' tag in the xml? or something?

are you looking for splunk base-line architectures? if so then what @somesoni2 posted is what you're looking for. If you don't know what you need you need to work with professional services to go through a review of what you're trying to build and have indexed into the environment, etc.

I'm using the JIRA Splunk Add-on App and got it working in Dev using the base configuration. Everything is working, however the password is written in clear text---is there a better way to encrypt/decrypt this password for the app to use without any manual intervention?
I'm reading a few things and it seems like it should be simpler, but the write-ups have so much going on with the scripted input in the inputs.conf, configured realms, etc.
Any help or insight into what to expect or better ways on approaching a scripted login would be helpful.
Thanks.

sure,
i've got a dashboard, where users can fill out 3 forms:
they can input:
'My Title' for input1 - which is a title input.
index="my_index" sourcetype="my_sourcetype" my_search - for the search
then choose a dropdown.
<panel depends="$show_row2_tok$,$show_r2panel2_tok$">
<title>Row 2 - Panel 2</title>
<input type="text" token="r2p2_title">
<label>Panel Title</label>
<default></default>
</input>
<input type="text" token="r2p2_search">
<label>Search String</label>
<default></default>
</input>
<input type="dropdown" token="r2p2_viz">
<label>Visualization Type</label>
<choice value="column">Column Chart</choice>
<choice value="line">Line Graph</choice>
<choice value="stats">Stats Table</choice>
<default></default>
</input>
<html>
</html>
</panel>
These will then populate values in a KVstore where i need to write them with an eval:
| makeresults
| eval custom_r2p2_title = "$write_r2p2_title$"
| eval custom_r2p2_search = "$write_r2p2_search$"
| eval custom_r2p2_vi = "$write_r2p2_viz$"
| outputlookup my_kvstore append=true
since i'm enabling users to add a search string into the second input, sometimes they will have quotes inside of their values which will break the search with this error:
Error in 'eval' command: The expression is malformed.

Hello,
I'm looking to pass a token in a dashboard where the value may have quotes, since the token is going into an eval, anyone know how to get that to work? Right now i'm running into eval malformed errors. with quadruple quotes or more depending on how many quotes the user inputs.
Thanks.

Hello,
I have the following dashboard code:
<progress>
<condition match="'job.resultCount' > 0">
<set token="set_cp1_tok">$result.cp1$</set>
<set token="set_cp2_tok">$result.cp2$</set>
<set token="set_cp3_tok">$result.cp3$</set>
<set token="set_pa1_tok">$result.pa1$</set>
<set token="set_pa2_tok">$result.pa2$</set>
<set token="set_pa3_tok">$result.pa3$</set>
<set token="set_ws1_tok">$result.ws1$</set>
<set token="set_ws2_tok">$result.ws2$</set>
<set token="set_ws3_tok">$result.ws3$</set>
<set token="set_dct1_tok">$result.dct1$</set>
<set token="set_dct2_tok">$result.dct2$</set>
<set token="set_dct3_tok">$result.dct3$</set>
<set token="set_asm1_tok">$result.asm1$</set>
<set token="set_asm2_tok">$result.asm2$</set>
<set token="set_asm3_tok">$result.asm3$</set>
<set token="set_asm11_tok">$result.asm11$</set>
<set token="set_asm22_tok">$result.asm22$</set>
<set token="set_desc_tok">$result.description$</set>
<set token="edit_id_tok">$result.id$</set>
<set token="show_loading">true</set>
<set token="set_key_tok">$result.key$</set>
</condition>
<condition match="'result.custom_r1p1_vi'=="line"">
<set token="show_row1p1_line">true</set>
</condition>
<condition match="'result.custom_r1p2_vi'=="line"">
<set token="show_row1p2_line">true</set>
</condition>
<condition match="'result.custom_r1p3_vi'=="line"">
<set token="show_row1p3_line">true</set>
</condition>
</progress>
and only the first condition match statement is applying. The other 3 condition matches do not apply when the results are there, and the tokens should all be true.
I saw this answer, but every time i try to do it, i get XML errors stating i'm missing closing tags:

I need to get field values after a search finishes and pull fields from the finished search and set those values as tokens. i'm using $row.field_name$ but it's literally passing that text rather than the values.

hello, i did change my 'progress' flags to 'done'. Also my code shows i am already using $row.field_value$.
From what i'm reading, it sounds like it has to be a drilldown/CLICKED value. it can't just be set from a search finishing and pulling the fields from the finished search.
The way i have it set, it just sets the token as the literal words "$row.field_name$" and not expected field values.

Hello,
I have 3 panels on a single dashboard.
The first panel is visible where it TABLEs out a list of events which you can click on.
The second panel is hidden and is waiting on the value you click on from the first panel and runs a search and displays more events in a TABLE.
The third panel is also hidden and populated by the first and second panels then writes to a kvstore
Problem I'm having is passing the tokens from the second panel to the third panel. Example below:
My snippet of the second panel from XML
<search>
<query>
my search <token from panel1>... | table field1 field2
</query>
<earliest>-15m</earliest>
<latest>now</latest>
<progress>
<condition match="'job.resultCount' > 0">
<set token="set_field1_tok">$row.field1$</set>
<set token="set_field2_tok">$row.field2$</set>
<set token="fix_earliest">-15m</set>
<set token="fix_latest">now</set>
</condition>
</progress>
</search>
<option name="count">10</option>
<option name="drilldown">cell</option>
when I call $set_field1_tok$ and/or $set_field2_tok$ in panel3 I literally get the values "$row.field1$" and "$row.field2$" and not the expected field value. Am I doing this right? Or is this wrong?
Thanks.

Hello,
As the question states, i'm looking to send events from a universal forwarder to a heavy forwarder to have filtered. Once filtered, i'd like to change the sourcetype. I have not implemented this yet. This is for me to propose to upper management to agree on. I want to make sure the props/transforms piece is correct. I think the filtering is good, however i just want to make sure the syntax is all good.
I've listed my config and config details:
ON UNIVERSAL FORWARDER
inputs.conf
[monitor://c:\program files\app1\web.log]
_TCP_ROUTING = filter_heavy_forwarders
index = cmis_index
sourcetype = app1_web_logs
ON UNIVERSAL FORWARDER
outputs.conf
[tcpout]
defaultGroup=infosec_indexers
[tcpout:infosec_indexers]
autoLB = true
server = infosec_server1:9997,infosec_server2:9997,infosec_server3:9997…,infosec_server16:9997
[tcpout:cmis_indexers]
autoLB = true
server = cmis_server1:9997
[tcpout:filter_heavy_forwarders]
autoLB = true
Server = filter_hvyfwd1:9998,filter_hvyfwd2:9998
ON HEAVY FORWARDER
props.conf
[app1_web_logs]
TRANSFORMS-routing = app1_web_filter
TRANSFORMS-changest = app1_cmis_web
ON HEAVY FORWARDER
transforms.conf
[app1_web_filter]
REGEX = (Events|To|Filter)
DEST_KEY = _TCP_ROUTING
FORMAT = cmis_indexers
[app1_cmis_web_st]
DEST_KEY = MetaData:Sourcetype
FORMAT = sourcetype::app1_cmis_web
ON HEAVY FORWARDER
outputs.conf
[tcpout]
defaultGroup=none
[tcpout:cmis_indexers]
autoLB = true
server = cmis_server1:9997

Micahkemp answered this question. However he posted a comment, so i could not mark it, so i'm just adding the details and marking it as answered.
With my dilemma use MVEXPAND:
| mvexpand check_amount |eval fixed_value = round(check_amount / 100, 2)
or index the data as separate lines and then use the |EVAL in a search or in the props to have the work performed automatically.
Thanks,
John

I might be be able to do just that. I know indexing this file and breaking the file at each line will make life easier, I just had other data in the heading of the file that may be needed... I don't know yet.
Thanks man. I'll mark this as answered.

Yes that is a multi-value field and I believe this is the problem. However, i'm looking for a solution to see if there is any way around it to get the desired results.
