How to add a Google Maps report in a dashboard with Splunk 6.x ?

Hi all,

I'd like to add a map from the Google Maps App to one of my dashboards. I've read in the App page and in different other question about the same topic that I'm supposed to modify the advanced XML.
But it seems that from Splunk 6.x, you can no longer edit the advanced XML : http://answers.splunk.com/answers/109408/splunk-6-converting-simple-xml-to-advanced-xml-with-saved-s...

So, how does a newbee like do ?

Thanks a lot

Google maps app is not supported starting 6 and above. However, splunk has maps builtin.

Search for iplocation. Here's an example search
...|iplocation ip|geostats count by ip

hope this helps

Thanks for your answer but I'm not using ip but geographical coordinates (e.g. 48.39097,3.45699). More importantly, I know how to plot with those coordinates on Splunk's default map, but the resolution of the map is not good engh. Meaning I can't zoom as much as I want, and if I force the max zoom by changing the properties in the XML, the map does not plot anything after zooming over the default limit...

So a solution to my problem could be using a new map with a good resolution. For instance, I'd like to zoom to a neighborhood level.

Thanks
