Splunk Search

Drilldown query doesn't start automatically

I'm fairly new at this, but I have done a LOT of Googling before asking here... 😉 I have a dashboard that has single-value visualizations on it. When I click on any of them, it drills down to a form with panels that contain more information (I pass values from the first dashboard to the form). The problem is that nothing starts automatically on the "detail" form. The weird part is that if I click the "Edit" button, then click "Source" and finally "Cancel," the query (and a lookup) perform as desired. Has anyone seen this? I do have autoRun="true" and submitButton="false" on the form. Thanks for any help!

And of course I find an answer after I posted...

The issue was apparently related to setting tokens in the Init section of the form. I found another answer on here that suggested setting tokens in a dummy search, and that worked like a champ. Here's the reference to that question and answer: https://answers.splunk.com/answers/449235/is-there-a-different-way-to-set-a-token-in-a-form.html
