Hi,

Can you tell me why i can't update my dynamic list on my dashboard ? I have this message : "Duplicate values causing conflict"

 index="gta_projets" 
|  eval acteur='logs{}.user.firstName'." ".'logs{}.user.lastName' 
| dedup acteur 
|top 200 acteur | sort by acteur

Thanks you for your answer,

If you are using the query to populate an input like dropdown, then check that you do not have any static choice created. Seems like one of your acteur returned by query is the same as the static choice you have defined for the input.

Also, if you just need the first 200 acteur, you should consider changing the query as below.

  index="gta_projets" acteur=*
 | eval acteur='logs{}.user.firstName'." ".'logs{}.user.lastName' 
 | dedup acteur 
 | sort acteur
 | head 200

Thanks for your answer,

I have same probleme, i write like you but I can't take all values in acteur cause it's a concatenation enter firstName and lastName

index="gta_projets"  logs{}.user.firstName="*"  logs{}.user.lastName="*" 
  | eval acteur='logs{}.user.firstName'." ".'logs{}.user.lastName' 
  | dedup acteur 
  | sort acteur
  | head 25

@Abarny, Can you share the XML code for your input?

Do you see something like <choice value="<SomeValue>"><Some Label></choice>
