Hi all ,
I want to create the dashboard in which there should be a dropdown with all index's in my splunk server and if I select any one of the items in the dropdown, i want to view the log files in that index.
So after selecting one of the log files I want to see the trendchart please help.
I would start by creating a simple view that runs a search on load that pulls splunk and gets the list of indexes back, I would then use that list to populate a search and have the search when the drop down is changed
see http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/5.0/Viz/Buildandeditforms
for starters

i updated the link in the original answer.
try this URL
http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/4.3.4/Developer/AddDropDowns
I found that most of the stuff breaks that uses latest instead of teh release number in the URL path
it saying the URL is not valid
