ALXWBR · ‎06-17-2019

I have a dashboard with a real-time search that populates a single viz with a number between 1 and 7.
I was wondering if it was possible to play an audio alert when the result changes, just a simple ping from a .wav file?
I have done a bit of research but was unable to find anything suitable.

This was actually solved with some very simple html.

I Uploaded the .mp3 files to $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/[MYAPP]/appserver/static and name them 1.mp3, 2.mp3...

In the single viz, I set it to populate the result into a token using the below code.

<search base="base">
  <query>| head 1 | table position</query>
    <progress>
      <set token="position_tok">$result.position$</set>
    </progress>
</search>

In a html panel I then placed the following

<html>
  <body>
    <audio src="/static/app/[MYAPP]/$position_tok$.mp3" autoplay="autoplay"/>
  </body>
</html>

and hid the panel. Now, when the result changes, it plays the relevant mp3 file on change

Is it possible to play an audio alert when a search (single viz) on a dashboard changes?
