Create forms in Splunk Light
A form is a dashboard that provides user inputs to the search. User inputs include components such as a list, a button, or a text box. A form has all the properties and behaviors of a dashboard.
The image shows a dropdown box, multiselect, and checkbox inputs added to a dashboard panel to make a form.
Convert a dashboard panel to a form
You can create and edit a form with the Dashboard Editor. To create a form, create a dashboard panel and then add a user input component to convert it to a form.
- Open the dashboard panel that you want to convert for a form.
- Select Edit.
- From the Add Input menu, select one or more inputs.
- For each input that you add, edit the input behavior.
- Click the pencil icon to open the edit window.
- Click Apply to save.
- (Optional) Drag the inputs to rearrange them.
- (Optional) Drag an input into a panel to specify an input applicable only to that panel.
For more information inputs and forms, see Create and edit forms in the Splunk Enterprise Dashboards and Visualizations manual.
