Creating a time range input
Let's change our input field into a time range field:
- On the list to the left for the first input, select
Time
. - In the
General
section, typeSelect Time Range
in theLabel
space. - Click on the
Search on Change
checkbox. - Enter
time
for theToken
value. - Set the
Default
time range toLast 24 hours
.
- Click
Apply
when done. - Use the following screenshot as a guide:

- Before you save the dashboard changes, click the
Autorun dashboard
checkbox, as seen in the following screenshot. Then click onSave
:

You can now try to change the time range using the time input, but nothing will happen. This is because we have not yet configured the panels to react when the time input has been changed. In these next steps, we are adjusting the searches to consider the token filled by the input selection. Let us do that now:
- Go back to
Edit
to allow for dashboard changes - Select the
Edit Search
(magnifying glass) icon - Change
Time Range
toShared Time Picker
(time)
- Click on
Apply
:

- Click on
Save
to exit Dashboard...
