Building Advanced Dashboards - Implementing Splunk: Big Data Reporting and Development for Operational Intelligence - page 229

This rule applies to values in Redirector , not in display.
° search.timeRange contains information about the times used by
this search, whether it comes from the URL, a TimeRangePicker ,
or params to the Search module. arg.earliest will add the value
to the URL.
With a click on the table row for LogoutClass , we are taken to the following URL:
http://mysplunkserver:8000/en-US/app/is_app_one/chapter_8_sideview_3?
user=mar&ylogger=LogoutClass&earliest=1344188377
We will create the dashboard at this URL in the next section.
Sideview forms
For our final dashboard using Sideview modules, we will build a dashboard with
a form that can be prefilled from a URL, and allows changing the time range. The
advantage of this dashboard is that it can be used as a destination of a click without
being linked to from elsewhere. If the user accesses this dashboard directly, the default
values specified in the dashboard will be used instead. Let's look at the code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<view template="dashboard.html">
<!-- add sideview -->
<module name="SideviewUtils" layoutPanel="appHeader"/>
<!-- chrome -->
<label>Chapter 8 - Sideview Three</label>
<module name="AccountBar" layoutPanel="appHeader"/>
<module name="AppBar" layoutPanel="navigationHeader"/>
<module name="Message" layoutPanel="messaging">
<param name="filter">*</param>
<param name="clearOnJobDispatch">False</param>
<param name="maxSize">1</param>
</module>
<!-- URLLoader -->
<module
name="URLLoader"
layoutPanel="panel_row1_col1"
