To set tokens, I have several "condition match" in a search but, if more than one condition is matched, only the first one seems to work.
To simplify my use case:
<search>
<query>index=_internal | stats count by host | table host, count</query>
<earliest>@d</earliest>
<latest>now</latest>
<sampleRatio>1</sampleRatio>
<done>
<condition match="len($result.host$)!=0">
<set token="showtab1">t1</set>
</condition>
<condition match="len($result.count$)!=0">
<set token="showtab2">t2</set>
</condition>
</done>
</search>
What I expect is that both tokens will be set (both result.host and result.count exist and have a value).
However, only "showtab1" is set.
To my surprise, if I swap the conditions order:
[...]
<done>
<condition match="len($result.count$)!=0">
<set token="showtab2">t2</set>
</condition>
<condition match="len($result.host$)!=0">
<set token="showtab1">t1</set>
</condition>
</done>
[...]
Now, "showtab2" is set (and "showtab1" is unset...)
What I'm missing here?

The issue is only one condition is ever executed. They are like if, else-if, else structures.
So you need to combine the two outcomes in one condition and then separate them out.
<condition match="len($result.host$)!=0 AND len($result.count$)!=0">
<set token="showtab1">t1</set>
<set token="showtab2">t2</set>
<condition match="len($result.host$)!=0">
<set token="showtab1">t1</set>
</condition>
<condition match="len($result.count$)!=0">
<set token="showtab2">t2</set>
</condition>

I have a better answer than multiplexing logic: multiple <change> sections, like this:
<change>
<condition match="len($result.host$)!=0">
<set token="showtab1">t1</set>
</condition>
<condition>
<unset token="showtab1"></unset>
</condition>
</change>
<change>
<condition match="len($result.count$)!=0">
<set token="showtab2">t2</set>
</condition>
<condition>
<unset token="showtab2"></unset>
</condition>
</change>
In the case of 2x2 like this either solution is about the same. However when you scale to a much larger matrix of fields and values, this solution is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better.

If this would (still) be the case, then this dashboard should be able to set one of the 2 tokens based upon the clicked checkbox:
<form theme="dark" script="simple_xml_examples:showtokens.js">
<fieldset submitButton="false">
<input type="checkbox" token="field1">
<label>field1</label>
<choice value="option1">option1</choice>
<choice value="option2">option2</choice>
<change>
<condition match="isnotnull(mvfind($form.field1$,"option1"))">
<set token="option1.txt">option1</set>
</condition>
<condition>
<unset token="option1.txt"></unset>
</condition>
</change>
<change>
<condition match="isnotnull(mvfind($form.field1$,"option2"))">
<set token="option2.txt">option2</set>
</condition>
<condition>
<unset token="option2.txt"></unset>
</condition>
</change>
</input>
</fieldset>
<row>
<panel>
<html>
<p>$option1.txt$</p>
<p>$option2.txt$</p>
</html>
</panel>
</row>
</form>But, only the second change block gets hit. Or am I doing something wrong here?

This seems to work (but still feels like a work around):
<form theme="dark" script="simple_xml_examples:showtokens.js">
<init>
<set token="field1">off</set>
</init>
<fieldset submitButton="false">
<input type="checkbox" token="field">
<label>field</label>
<choice value="option1">option1</choice>
<choice value="option2">option2</choice>
<change>
<eval token="field1">case(isnotnull(mvfind($form.field$,"option1")),"option1")</eval>
<eval token="field2">case(isnotnull(mvfind($form.field$,"option2")),"option2")</eval>
</change>
</input>
</fieldset>
<search>
<query>
| makeresults
| eval option1=$field1$
</query>
<done>
<condition match="isnull($field1$)">
<unset token="option1.txt"></unset>
</condition>
<condition>
<set token="option1.txt">$field1$</set>
</condition>
</done>
</search>
<search>
<query>
| makeresults
| eval option2=$field2$
</query>
<done>
<condition match="isnull($field2$)">
<unset token="option2.txt"></unset>
</condition>
<condition>
<set token="option2.txt">$field2$</set>
</condition>
</done>
</search>
<row>
<panel>
<html>
<p>$option1.txt$</p>
<p>$option2.txt$</p>
</html>
</panel>
</row>
</form>Does someone have a better solution?

How do you set multiple tokens using multiple conditions when the search results are done?

This answer solves an issue I am having. I like the way this is structured.
@woodcock, if I'm reading this correctly (and a test verifies this), as soon as a condition fires, all other conditions are ignored. There is no nesting her, but an elegant trigger condition, or an "else" condition that fires to do other business logic (show/hide here).
Very nice.

According to the form documentation you can only have one change block. https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.0.1/Viz/PanelreferenceforSimplifiedXML#change_.28form...

Please post the text, too. I read the link and other than the use of the definite article "the", which only implies a constraint, I do not see a limitation listed. In any case, it does work and I often use it.

It doesn't allow me to open two conditions and only close one. (on line 6.)
How did you get it to run when the open/close tags are not complete?
