Link to a custom URL

The URL can be relative, such as coming from a local site, or absolute from an external site.

To link to a custom URL, complete the following steps:

  1. Select the visualization you want to link from and it will highlight with a blue border.
  2. In the Configuration panel, click +Add Drilldown.
  3. Use the On Click dropdown and choose Link to custom URL.
  4. Provide a relative or absolute URL.

    If you do not provide an https:// address, the generated URL is considered internal to Splunk Enterprise and uses a localhost URL, such as localhost:8000//. If you provide an https:// prefix, such as https://splunk.com, the link directs to that external URL.

  5. (Optional) Select Open in new tab to have the linked URL open in a new tab.
  6. Select Save.

When linking from a visualization with data, you must click the actual value in the visualization, not just anywhere, to go to the link.
