Hi,
I need to create a dashboard view of the below requirement:
Row1: Title: Title1, Name: Name1, Designation: Des1, Place: Place1
Row2: Title: Title2, Name: Name2, Designation: Des2, place: Place2
Row3: Title: Title3, Name: Name3, Designation: Desc3, Place: Place3 and so on...
Is this possible using a txt file as input to the splunk? If so, how do I get started? I'm clueless.
Have a look at the inputlookup
command, which lets you read CSV formatted data into Splunk and have it treated like regular search results. Using inputlookup
and a table in your dashboard should give you what you want. As for how to create dropdowns where you load data like that, there are plenty of good examples on this in the Dashboard examples app.
