So I think what I want is to use the nested 'ValueSetter' like your 3rd example. I guess the point is that I want to build the 'search' and 'postProcess' queries from pre-existing 'ValueSetter' modules, and then also reuse those values for the link to the raw query results as well. I think I know how to use your 3rd example to get me there. Thanks.

So I'm trying to create a hyperlink that is based off a search and postProcess but a little different. So now I'm having problems with 1) having to duplicate the same query text multiple times and 2) having to manually URL encode the query. Consider the example below: rec=test field1=a | stats count(rec) by rec, field1, field2 field2=b redirectURL search,postProcess rec=test field1=a field2=b  <![CDATA[ View Results ]]> So in the example above, what I'm trying to do is just show the raw records by creating a flashtimeline to a URL encoded query that are associated with the 'search' and the 'postProcess' queries (but not a direct concatenation of the two tokens). So I can no longer pass in the $search$ and $postProcess$ tokens, so the question I have is can I define new tokens to 1) represent the parts of the query I want to reuse and also to pass into the 'urlEncodeKeys' param? For example, Can I create tokens such that '$tok1$' equates to 'rec=test field1=a' and '$tok2' equates to 'field2=b', and use those tokens within the 'search' params and also to pass those in to the ValueSetter params?

So I don't understand the difference between ViewRedirector and ViewRedirectorLink modules. I was handed some Advanced XML that I'm maintaining, and would like if someone could explain what this pattern does:  100% flashtimeline flashtimeline So I think that 'ViewRedirectorLink' creates the 'View Results' link, but I can't figure out what the 'ConvertToDrilldownSearch' with nested 'ViewRedirector' module does.

So I'm having trouble using Sideview Utils to create a hyperlink to a new 'flashtimeline' from a graph that contains a column chart. So what I'm trying to do is take both the 'Search' and 'PostProcess' queries that are used to create a column chart, and create a hyper-link to a new page that is a flashtimeline with the 'search' and 'postProcess' queries concatenated together. So currently I have a 'Search' module with a 'search' param and a 'PostProcess' with a 'search' param nested within the outer module. Then within the 'PostProcess' module I have a nested 'ValueSetter' module as follows: rec=test | stats count(rec) by rec, field1 timechart count(rec) by field1  redirectURL search,postProcess $search$ | $postProcess$ <![CDATA[ View Results ]]> So when I do this it loads a new 'flashtimeline' page, but does not use the appended search query...however the query is in the URL text box at the top of the browser. What am I doing wrong? Also is the 'Redirector' module used for this type of thing, and how do you use it? I can't seem to get the redirector module to do anything useful like create a link either.

I see your point. Anyways the next issue I have is I added a 'view results' link using the 'ViewRedirectorLink' module, but now that I'm using 'HiddenPostProcess', it only shows the parent search query, not the parent + post-process query that I want. Is there a way to create a link to a specific search query?

Thanks for the answer. However as I was thinking about this more, I discovered the 'table' search command where I just put all the fields I care about for post-processing as arguments. I tried that as well and found it appears to work, and it allows me to still use the 'top' command. Using 'top' is a lot more clear to me than using 'stats' twice. Do you see any downside to this approach?

So I'm attempting to re-use the same search query results multiple times in the same advanced view for performance reasons, but its not giving me the data that I want. So what I want is to re-use a search query result set for two different bar graphs that show the top occurrences of a certain field. For example, with individual queries it would be: (Graph 1) HiddenSearch search string: field1=blah | top field2 (Graph 2) HiddenSearch search string: field1=blah | top field3 But with HiddenSearch / HiddenPostProcess I ended up with the following (according to the tiny amount of documentation explaining this feature): HiddenSearch search string: field1=blah | stats count by field2, field3 (Graph 1) HiddenPostProcess search string: top field2 (Graph 2) HiddenPostProcess search string: top field3 The results using this method end up with a very small number because it doesn't factor in all the 'counts' from the main query. What I ultimately want is for the parent query to give me the results of 'field1=blah' so that a piped 'top' command actually works in getting all the relevant counts.
