Hi!
I am trying to create a Sankey chart showing a list of Splunk users, what roles they have, and what indexes they are able to search in. To test Sankey, I wanted to use the example provided in the app "Splunk 6.x Dashboard example", and use that exact example when creating a new Dashboard under the "Search"-app.
The example in the app lists that the Sankey chart consists of 4 files: custom_viz_sankey.xml, autodiscover.js, sankey.js, and sankey.css. I have copied these files into my user area, and beneath the "Search" folder. The dashboard is present in the list of dashboards on my account, but is totally empty when clicking on it.
What am I missing here? Why is the dashboard empty? Are the javascript files not being generated? How can I use the example Sankey chart from the app to modify for my own data?

Copy the following into your app folder from the examples app:
appserver/static/autodiscover.js
appserver/static/components/d3
appserver/static/components/sankey
Create your dashboard and make sure the "data-require" path references your app. Restart Splunk and clear your cache if needed.
<form script="autodiscover.js">
<label>Sankey Diagram</label>
<search id="sankey_search">
<title>My Title</title>
<query><![CDATA[
index=* rename src as from dst as to | stats count by from to | head 20
]]>
</query>
<earliest>1</earliest>
<latest>now</latest>
</search>
<row>
<panel>
<html>
<div id="sankey" class="splunk-view" data-require="app/<app_name>/components/sankey/sankey"
data-options='{
"managerid": "sankey_search",
"height": 400
}'>
</div>
</html>
</panel>
</row>
</form>

Have you restarted your Splunk instance after moving the files? Changes that invode css and js files generally need a restart to be usable in dashboards.

Don't forget to disable client-side and server-side caches. In chrome go to F12 > Network > Disable cache. On the splunk server edit the appdir/local/web.conf.
==> web.conf <==
[settings]
cacheBytesLimit = 0
cacheEntriesLimit = 0

Yes, I have restarted Splunk.. Is it necessary to modify the files from the example?

Update: When clicking on the dashboard I get the following error message:
"XML Syntax Error: error parsing attribute name, line 17, column 9",
which is the following line of code in custom_viz_sankey.xml:
