I'm not entirely certain I understand how to put Google Maps stuff onto a standard Splunk search dashboard. I'm trying to add a map of the data from one of the searches to a dashbaord to display that data, but I'm not understanding what I have to do to put the XML data into there. Can someone give me a little bit of guidance getting started?
Can someone please explain step 4? I'm new to splunk and need some detailed info.
thanks heaps.
cheers,

Here is what I always do to add Google Map into a dashboard.
Add the below module into the splunk dashboard.
Put your query created in GoogleMap app in "YOUR SEARCH".
Hope it helps.
The module "layoutpanel="panel_row1_col1" defines where you put your panel on the dashboard. I need to see your module, but if you defines "panel_row1_col1", the panel should be on the top left. If you can share your XML that would help.
This didn't work, it now triggers an error message about not being able to generate the dashboard, as well as these: Misconfigured view 'test_dashboard' - layoutPanel is not defined for module GoogleMaps. Misconfigured view 'test_dashboard' - layoutPanel is not defined for module HiddenSearch.
I'm sorry, I missed the part. Once you convert to advanced one, then you have to copy all advancedXML module in XML source box, and pasted (replace) it the original simpleXML on the splunk dashboard.
I did that, but even in that URL you've stated, there's no way to commit the changes. After I have the AdvancedXML, where does that go? Does that go to the "Edit Source", get pasted, and then saved, or what? Considering that I"m new to Splunk, you might have to deal with the more noobish questions from me. 😕
You cannot convert it to advancedXML by editor. You need to change the domain as I explained. Add "?howsource=advanced"
(http://localhost:8000/en-US/app/search/my_view?showsource=advanced)
Is it possible to add this as its own item on a preexisting dashboard at all? As well, this did not work, there was no way to apply these changes in the link you provided, and no apparent way to get to advancedXML in the editor.
